          Kafka itself exposes lots of performance metrics. At my employer, we use Prometheus to ingest + store those metrics, and a Grafana frontend for graphs + dashboards. We also instrument our apps, including our Java apps with the Prometheus library, and expose+scrape custom metrics to help us understand all aspects of our data pipelines and performance.

          • Would you please tell me how can I use Kafka performance metrics? How should I check them?

          • When you run your Kafka brokers, set the environment variable KAFKA_OPTS=-javaagent:/usr/share/jmx_prometheus_javaagent-0.3.1.jar=7071:/usr/share/kafka-0-8-2.yml with local paths pointing to the files from https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/io/prometheus/jmx/jmx_prometheus_javaagent/0.3.1/jmx_prometheus_javaagent-0.3.1.jar and https://github.com/prometheus/jmx_exporter/blob/master/example_configs/kafka-0-8-2.yml

          • after that you should be able to see the metrics via doing an http test with curl my-kafka-broker:7071/localhost. When you've confirmed that's working, setup a Prometheus server and configure your Kafka brokers as scrape targets. Then you should see your Kafka metrics.
