Kafka Consumer Lag metrics

[sri9]

Hello there, I am trying to monitor Kafka Consumer Lag metrics using Dynatrace AM.

However I am facing challenges during exporting these metrics out-of-box. I need Lag metrics per Topic/partition and Consumer group. Any workaround / solution available? Please provide guidance on this topic. Thanks in advance!
Note. We are using Cloudera provided Kafka distribution.

Hope it helps.

Still puzzled where these metrics are 🙂 Thanks
