kafka-manager VS kafka-lag-exporter

Are there any comparison to CMAK or Kafdrop ?

Dockerized kafka manager (Yahoo CMAK)

Cluster Manager for Apache Kafka (CMAK)

There are so many of them in big data, e.g. Kafka, Spark, Flink, Delta, Snowplow, Finagle, Deequ, CMAK, OpenWhisk, Snowflake, TheHive, TVM-VTA, etc.

We're using CMAK (previously known as kafka manager) https://github.com/yahoo/CMAK

Some random tips: * Use SSDs, not magnetic disks. Our Kafka brokers used to use magnetic disks for more throughput, but this caused wayyyy more problems, like very slow broker restarts. * You'll want to install something like Burrow so you can get better lag metrics. * You might want to install CMAK. It's a web interface for common ops tasks.

I've used Yahoo's CMAK before for these things -

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
