+# Monitoring
+
+Use OpenTelemetry to monitor your LLM application in real-time. OpenLIT simplifies the process of gathering insights on interactions, usage metrics, and more, enabling you to optimize the performance and reliability of your Ollama based LLM application.
+
+## How it works?
+
+OpenLIT extends the capabilities of the Ollama Python SDK by adding automated data instrumentation. It automatically wraps around the `chat`, `generate` and `embeddings` functions, generating OpenTelemetry data (traces and metrics) that help you understand how your application performs under various conditions. This telemetry data can be easily integrated with popular observability platforms like Grafana and DataDog, which allows for in-depth analysis and visualization.
+
+## Getting Started
+
+Here’s a straightforward guide to help you set up and start monitoring your application:
+
+### 1. Install the OpenLIT SDK
+Open your terminal and run:
+
+```shell
+pip install openlit
+```
+
+### 2. Setup Your Application for Monitoring
+In your Python script, configure OpenLIT to work with Ollama:
+
+```python
+import ollama
+import openlit
+
+openlit.init()
+
+response = ollama.chat(model='llama3', messages=[
+  {
+    'role': 'user',
+    'content': 'Why is the sky blue?',
+  },
+])
+print(response['message']['content'])
+```
+This setup wraps your Ollama model interactions within a monitored session, capturing valuable data about each request and response.
+
+### Visualize
+
+Once you've set up data collection with OpenLIT, you can visualize and analyze this information to better understand your application's performance:
+
+- **Review Your Data:** Connect to OpenLIT's UI to start exploring performance metrics. Visit the OpenLIT [Quickstart Guide](https://docs.openlit.io/latest/quickstart) for step-by-step details.
+
+- **Integrate with Observability Tools:** If you use tools like Grafana or DataDog, you can integrate the data collected by OpenLIT. For instructions on setting up these connections, check the OpenLIT [Connections Guide](https://docs.openlit.io/latest/connections/intro).
