Description

Prometheus is becoming popular for metrics and alerting. It's possible to use statsd-exporter to load Flink metrics into Prometheus but it would be far easier if Flink supported Promethus as a metrics reporter. A dropwizard client exists that could be integrated into the existing metrics system.
