Monitor Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka with Datadog

Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (MSK) is a fully managed service that allows developers to build highly available and scalable applications on Kafka, enabling migration of existing Kafka applications to AWS while handling provisioning and maintenance of Kafka and ZooKeeper nodes. The new integration with Datadog provides deep visibility into managed Kafka streams, monitoring health and performance in real-time through an out-of-the-box dashboard. To ensure reliability, alerts can be set up for disk usage thresholds, and machine learning-powered forecasts can predict when disk usage will exceed a threshold. The integration also tracks offline partition counts, allowing developers to track the number of partitions that are not serving data. Additionally, it provides metrics on ZooKeeper request latency, enabling comprehensive monitoring of managed clusters. With Datadog, developers can monitor Amazon MSK alongside hundreds of other popular technologies and tools, ensuring uninterrupted streaming and performance.
