Hi! I would like to claim this issue as a follow-up to my application for #66 (Docker Compose Setup).

Since I am already orchestrating the microservices container environment, I can seamlessly integrate the observability stack directly into the same infrastructure.

My plan:

Extend Infrastructure: Add Prometheus, Grafana, Loki (for lightweight logging), and Jaeger to the docker-compose network.

Metrics: Configure prometheus.yml to scrape the backend services (which I will configure to expose /metrics).

Logging: Use the Docker logging driver or Promtail to ship container logs to Loki/Grafana.

Dashboards: Provision a default Grafana dashboard that visualizes container health (CPU/Memory) and request latency.

I am ready to start immediately.
