Confluent Kafka connector monitoring

[Kafkasre]

Hi, I want to configure "Confluent Kafka Connector" in data explorer in default "Confluent Cloud (Kafka) Overview" dashboard.

Does it support out of the box or need to use JMX metrics option only?

Confluent Kafka Connectors 

  - Metrics to choose for this table

  - Kafka connectors count, Dead Letter queues, Sent/Received records count

Status of Confluent Connectors (in other table)

  - Status : Running/Stopped/Pause

Alert to send when Connector stopped

Please guide me any document or steps to achieve this.

Thanks.

Hi,

https://www.dynatrace.com/hub/detail/confluent-cloud-kafka/. (all available metric, content and features down below)

https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/extend-dynatrace/extend-metrics/ingestion-methods/prometheus/prometh... (configuration)

I found this two documents hopes it helps 🙂

Best regards

@Pawel_Zalewski  Can we collet confluent connector metrics through out of the box extension or not.

I have gone through one of the forum questions and still in confusion:

Solved: Monitor the Kafka connector & task status - Dynatrace Community

Can we integrate JMX extension with default Confluent Cloud (Kafka) Overview dashboard?

Please share the document how to integrate or collect JMX metrics for Connector through default Confluent Cloud (Kafka) Overview dashboard?
