Micrometer Observation Documentation

Observability - Metrics

Below you can find a list of all metrics declared by this project.

Listener Observation

Observation for Apache Kafka listeners.

Metric name spring.kafka.listener (defined by convention class KafkaListenerObservation$DefaultKafkaListenerObservationConvention). Type timer.

Metric name spring.kafka.listener.active (defined by convention class KafkaListenerObservation$DefaultKafkaListenerObservationConvention). Type long task timer.

KeyValues that are added after starting the Observation might be missing from the *.active metrics.

Micrometer internally uses nanoseconds for the baseunit. However, each backend determines the actual baseunit. (i.e. Prometheus uses seconds)

Name of the enclosing class KafkaListenerObservation.

All tags must be prefixed with spring.kafka.listener prefix!

`spring.kafka.listener.id` (required)	Listener id (or listener container bean name).

Template Observation
