Kafka total time per produce/fetchFollower request

[Stephane_LeMoig]

Hello,

i need to now what means exactly this metrics.

Is it the time beetween the producers launch his request and the return from the kafka cluster to say it's OK.

I ask the question because we have astonishing value that we can't correlate with other metrics.

Thanks a lot.

@Stephane_LeMoig have you made any progress with getting clarity on this?

Hello, these Dynatrace metrics are equivalent to

kafka.network:type=RequestMetrics,name=TotalTimeMs,request={Produce|FetchConsumer|FetchFollower}

https://docs.confluent.io/platform/current/kafka/monitoring.html

These metric measure the total time taken to service a request:

• produce: requests from producers to send data
• fetch-consumer: requests from consumers to get new data
• fetch-follower: requests from brokers that are the followers of a partition to get new data

Best regards,

Alex
