+# Overview
+
+OpenTelemetry IORedis Instrumentation allows the user to automatically collect trace data and export them to the backend(s) of choice (Jaeger in this example).
+
+## Tracing backend setup
+
+### Jaeger
+
+- Setup [Jaeger Tracing](https://www.jaegertracing.io/docs/latest/getting-started/#all-in-one)
+
+## Installation
+
+```sh
+npm install
+```
+
+## Run the Application
+
+- Start redis via docker
