An important part of deploying Kafka Connect is monitoring the health of the workers in a cluster and the connectors and tasks that have been deployed to the cluster. The Although producers and consumers used in Kafka Connect can be monitored, the Kafka Connect framework only has a few metrics capturing the number of connectors and tasks for each worker. To augment these existing metrics, so we propose to add metrics to monitor more information about the connectors, tasks, and workers. This proposal expressly avoids changes to the Connect API, and therefore does not address how connector implementations can define their own connector-specific metrics. All metrics reported by each worker are scoped by the activities within that worker.
There are several things that are Kafka Connect does not have any existing mechanism to aggregate the metrics reported by each worker, and therefore any such aggregation is out of scope for this KIP.

proposal, though they may be addressed in future KIPs. First, this proposal expressly avoids changes to the Connect API, and therefore does not address how connector implementations can define their own connector-specific metrics. Second, Kafka Connect does not have any existing mechanism to aggregate the metrics reported across multiple workers.

All of the following will be added via Kafka's metrics library like most of the metrics in the Kafka brokers and other components. The context All of the following will be added via Kafka's metrics library like most of the metrics in the Kafka brokers and other components. The scope of all metrics are limited to the worker where the metrics are being reported, and all metric names include the name of the worker in the MBean attribute.

Configuration
The distributed and standalone worker configuration files will support the following properties. These exactly match the producer and consumer configurations of the same name. (The first three are already in the distributed worker configuration.)
Configuration Field | Type | Default | Importance | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
metrics.sample.window.ms | long | 30000 | low | The window of time in milliseconds a metrics sample is computed over. Must be a non-negative number. |
metrics.num.samples | int | 2 | low | The number of samples maintained to compute metrics. Must be a positive number. |
metric.reporters | string | "" | low | A list of classes to use as metrics reporters. Implementing the MetricReporter interface allows plugging in classes that will be notified of new metric creation. The JmxReporter is always included to register JMX statistics. |
metrics.recording.level | string | "INFO" | low | The highest recording level for metrics. Must be either "INFO" or "DEBUG". |
Proposed Changes
We will add the relevant metrics and worker configuration properties as specified in the Public Interfaces section
Metric Name | Description | MBean attribute |
---|---|---|
REST request rate | The number of requests handled by the REST endpoints in this worker | kafka.connect:type=worker-rest-metrics,name=request-rate,worker=([-.\w]+) |
Proposed Changes
We will add the relevant metrics as specified in the Public Interfaces section. The scope of each metric is limited by a single worker, and these metrics can be aggregated across workers; this is why the worker name is included in all MBean attributes.
Compatibility, Deprecation, and Migration Plan
Two existing metrics exist but Existing Connect coordinator metrics will not be changed. However, these new metrics use slightly different patterns for the MBean attributes to always include the worker name, new metrics will be added to replicate these existing metrics with the new naming pattern.
The metrics.sample.window.ms
, metrics.num.samples
, and metric.reporters
configurations already exist in the distrtibuted worker; these will also be added to the standalone worker. The metrics.recording.level
configuration will be added to both the distributed and standalone worker configurations. All four of these metrics have sensible default values and therefore users do not need to add or override them in their existing configuration files.
