Basic Jaeger v2 docker-compose deployment with Traefik as reverse proxy

This intentionally minimal example demonstrates how to deploy Jaeger v2 using Docker Compose with Traefik as a reverse proxy. It is designed for educational purposes and may require further customization for production use.

Important:

example.yml
services:
  jaeger:
    image: jaegertracing/jaeger:2.11.0
    container_name: jaeger
    restart: "unless-stopped"
    command:
      - "--set"
      - "receivers.otlp.protocols.http.endpoint=0.0.0.0:4318"
      - "--set"
      - "receivers.otlp.protocols.grpc.endpoint=0.0.0.0:4317"
    # ports:
    #  - "5778:5778"
    #  - "16686:16686"
    #  - "4317:4317"
    #  - "4318:4318"
    #  - "14250:14250"
    #  - "14268:14268"
    #  - "9411:9411"
    labels:
      - "traefik.enable=true"
      # Jaeger web UI
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger.rule=Host(`jaeger.mydomain.com`)"
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger.entrypoints=websecure"
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger.tls.certresolver=cloudflare"
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger.tls.domains[0].main=jaeger.mydomain.com"
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger.tls.domains[0].sans=*.jaeger.mydomain.com"
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger.service=jaeger"
      - "traefik.http.services.jaeger.loadbalancer.server.port=16686"
      # gRPC (OTLP) receiver via Traefik
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger-grpc.rule=Host(`grpc.jaeger.mydomain.com`)"
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger-grpc.entrypoints=websecure"
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger-grpc.tls.certresolver=cloudflare"
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger-grpc.tls.domains[0].main=jaeger.mydomain.com"
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger-grpc.tls.domains[0].sans=*.jaeger.mydomain.com"
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger-grpc.service=jaeger-grpc"
      - "traefik.http.services.jaeger-grpc.loadbalancer.server.port=4317"
      - "traefik.http.services.jaeger-grpc.loadbalancer.server.scheme=h2c"
      # HTTP (OTLP) receiver via Traefik
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger-http.rule=Host(`http.jaeger.mydomain.com`)"
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger-http.entrypoints=websecure"
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger-http.tls.certresolver=cloudflare"
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger-http.tls.domains[0].main=jaeger.mydomain.com"
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger-http.tls.domains[0].sans=*.jaeger.mydomain.com"
      - "traefik.http.routers.jaeger-http.service=jaeger-http"
      - "traefik.http.services.jaeger-http.loadbalancer.server.port=4318"

Example script

The same script as for Signoz works here, see Logfire example which connects to SigNoz instead of Logfire

This is how it looks in the Jaeger UI:
