Prometheus JMX Exporter for Java17
not quite sure if this is where I should be asking for help but i'm kind of befuddled about this whole situation. I'm trying to set up https://github.com/prometheus/jmx_exporter for our containerized Java application on our cluster. Specifically the JavaAgent as we are interested in getting the CPU and memory metrics especially. However, getting it initialized I am faced with this:
-
Initial setup
Prometheus doesn't deal with logs at all - only metrics. Even just for metrics, you have several different choices depending on how your Java application is running. You may be able to use the JMX Exporter to expose the metrics that you would then scrape with Prometheus. For the logs, you'll need something like Fluent Bit as an agent to grab ('tail' in Fluent Bit input terms) the logs and send them to Elasticsearch or Grafana Loki.

What kind of monitoring tools are people using for their Kafka Deployment?
- https://github.com/prometheus/jmx_exporter - https://github.com/lightbend/kafka-lag-exporter (Export Kafka Topics Lag Metrics) - https://github.com/danielqsj/kafka_exporter (Export Kafka Metrics) - https://github.com/obsidiandynamics/kafdrop (Topic Administration tool - create/edit/delete topics & view messages)

Kafka monitoring
Usually I use a javaagent that transforms the JMX metrics into prometheus style metrics, for example: https://github.com/prometheus/jmx_exporter/blob/116a1c4b3fafcfbb9e566b34e130ccc805f331fc/example_configs/kafka-0-8-2.yml

Do you use Tomcat ? How to you get optimal performance of it?
Another good one is to add the jmx_exporter agent plugin. This allows easy collection of real-time performance metrics.

Kafka Connect: The Magic Behind Mux Data Realtime Exports
In our case, we add sink connectors for AWS Kinesis and Google Cloud PubSub. We also add a Prometheus exporter JAR that scrapes the Kafka Connect JMX metrics and exposes them as Prometheus metrics.

Some cool features you may don’t know about Apache Kafka
Kafka Lag Exporter is not part of the Apache Kafka project nor the Confluent Platform. It’s an open-source project under Apache-2.0 License to export Consumer Lag with reporters like Prometheus, Graphite, or InfluxDB. Kafka Lag Exporter enables to monitor Consumer Lag but it also allows to estimate the Time Lag. This metric shows how far a Consumer group is behind the last produced record in terms of time. It shows the actual latency of a consumer application. For more information about this estimation, you can read the chapter of the documentation Estimate Consumer Group Time Lag
What are some alternatives?
When comparing jmx_exporter and kafka-lag-exporter you can also consider the following projects:
Telegraf - The plugin-driven server agent for collecting & reporting metrics.
kafka_exporter - Kafka exporter for Prometheus
akhq - Kafka GUI for Apache Kafka to manage topics, topics data, consumers group, schema registry, connect and more...
container-jfr - Secure JDK Flight Recorder management for containerized JVMs
exporterhub.io - A Curated List of Prometheus Exporters
demo-scene - 👾Scripts and samples to support Confluent Demos and Talks. ⚠️Might be rough around the edges ;-) 👉For automated tutorials and QA'd code, see https://github.com/confluentinc/examples/
