Upload Metrics to Kafka

Users may declare a memsqlPusherSpec inside of a monitoringSpec to configure uploading data to Kafka.

monitoringSpec:
memsqlPusherSpec:
enable: true
mode: Cluster
organizationName: <org_name>
kafkaBootstrapServer: <server_address>
kafkaProtocol: <kafka_protocol>
pusherSecretName: <pusher_secret_name>

The <org_name> is the prefix for the two Kafka topics that the monitoring data will be pushed to, specifically:

  • <org_name>_metrics

  • <org_name>_blobs

These two topics must be created if they don’t exist.

The Kubernetes secret with pusher_secret_name must contain the following two keys in its data section:

  • KAFKA_USER

  • KAFKA_PASSWORD
