KAFKA extension

Mizső — Fri, 31 Oct 2025 07:00:37 GMT

Hi Folks,

Should we see python KAFKA metrics in the KAFKA extesnion or it is just supports java kafka, java kafka streams, spring for apache kafka, node.js kafkaJs, .NET messaging Apache Kafka? We can see the supported technologies kafka metrics.

Oneagent features are swithed on for python kafka.

If not supported the python KAFAK metrics is it on the reoad map.

Thanks in adavance.

Best regards,

János

@Mizső The Kafka extension is JMX based, thus it can collect metrics only from Java applications.

I believe currently the only option is to have your application either expose the metrics (in Prometheus format, so you can easily scrape it) or send it via OpenTelemetry. I don't think the python kafka libraries automatically expose the metrics in any form.

Hi Julius,

Thanks for the hints. I am going to check it in the client environment.

Best regards,
