             Summary: Rename Remote Storage metrics to remove ambiguity
                 Key: KAFKA-15236
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-15236
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Abhijeet Kumar
            Assignee: Abhijeet Kumar


As per the Tiered Storage feature introduced in 
[KIP-405|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-405%3A+Kafka+Tiered+Storage],
 we added several metrics related to reads(from) and writes(to) for remote 
storage. The naming convention that was followed is confusing to the users.

For eg. in regular Kafka, BytesIn means bytes *_written_* to the log, and 
BytesOut means bytes *_read_* from the log. But with tiered storage, the 
concepts are reversed.
 * RemoteBytesIn means "Number of bytes *_read_* from remote storage per second"
 * RemoteBytesOut means "Number of bytes _*written*_ to remote storage per 
second"

We should rename the tiered storage related metrics to remove any ambiguity.
