I’d like to know if there are plans in the nearest future for Kafka plugin development?
Kafka is one of the most used components in the big data stack, I am surprised there is no plugin for it yet.
Hi, @imochurad: Kafka exposes performance metrics via JMX; you may be able to use a third-party JMX plugin to report this data to New Relic.
Please note that anyone may create a New Relic plugin; in fact, the majority of existing plugins were written by third parties. If you need a particular plugin, you need not wait for New Relic to develop it; you can write it yourself.

Actually, I have discovered that Apache Kafka plugin is already incubating:
https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/agents/java-agent/instrumentation/java-agent-incubator#h3_7
And yes, I’ve seen that JMX plugin. Not sure how reliable it is.

As per documentation , this Kafka incubating module is supported on kafka version 0.8 only.
We are using kafka 0.10 and i could not seem to make it work. Can anyone confirm its non-availablity for kafka 0.10 ?
