This KIP will break backwards compatibility for anyone who is using the existing attribute names.
Kafka devs, I believe that metrics are a supported interface, and so this would be a breaking change. In order to do this, we would need a deprecation timeframe for the old metric, and a transition plan to the new name. Is that right? I'm not sure how we deprecate metrics... During the deprecation timeframe, we could duplicate the metric to the new name. -James On Nov 13, 2017, at 6:09 AM, charly molter <charly.mol...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, > > There doesn't seem to be much opposition to this KIP, I'll leave a couple > more days before starting the vote. > > Thanks! > > On Thu, Nov 9, 2017 at 1:59 PM, charly molter <charly.mol...@gmail.com> > wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> I'd like to start the discussion on KIP-225. >> >> This KIP tries to correct the way the consumer lag metrics are reported to >> use built in tags from MetricName. >> >> Here's the link: >> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=74686649 >> >> Thanks! >> -- >> Charly Molter >> > > > > -- > Charly Molter
