New quickstart for local environment

New

Our new Kubernetes quickstart: Local sandbox setup with demo data shows you how to run a demo application locally in a Kubernetes environment and then see logs, metrics, and traces in Cloud Observability. It uses the OpenTelemetry demo application running in minikube. The demo has feature flags that cause failure conditions in its services, so you can then use Cloud Observability and the telemetry data it emits to find and diagnose those issues.

Pre-built Collector dashboard

Have fun playing in your observability sandbox!
