We've wired the Prometheus JMX exporter java-agent into our Kafka
processes, we've then set up alerts in Prometheus for several key metrics
to monitor cluster health (under replicated partitions/offline partitions,
request handler avg idle percent to measure load etc.) - and because the
JMX exporter runs within the Kafka process, any sustained failure to scrape
also sets off an alert.

Cheers,

Liam Clarke
