    Grafana Alloy is an open telemetry collector that collects, processes, and exports metrics to various backends.
    ## Prerequisites
    - :warning: When alloy runs in a container, you should set the `container_hostname` to a unique value to identify
    the instance in your monitoring backend. Otherwise it defaults to the container ID.
