Hi, we started a new github project for using Kafka as the central point for all application and infrastructure metrics https://github.com/stealthly/metrics-kafka/.
We started off with implementing a Metrics Reporter (for Coda Hale's metrics) which produces (reports) the statistics to a Kafka topic. We also created an example consumer for monitoring those metrics using Riemann. More details in the blog post http://allthingshadoop.com/2014/04/18/metrics-kafka/ and more producers to follow (probably consumers too). Thoughts, comments, questions, feedback, tomatoes, pull requests are all welcome =8^) /******************************************* Joe Stein Founder, Principal Consultant Big Data Open Source Security LLC http://www.stealth.ly Twitter: @allthingshadoop <http://www.twitter.com/allthingshadoop> ********************************************/
