Hi, Iris, The metrics have already be calculated in Flink. So we only need to report these metric as the gauges. For example, the metric `metricA` is a Flink counter and is increased from 1 to 2. The statsd gauge will be 2 now. If we register it as a statsd counter, we will send 1 and 2 to the statsd counter. The statsd counter will be 3, which is a wrong result.
