Description

Flume has a comprehensive metrics system build on MBeans which has exporters to HTTP/JSON and Ganglia.

Adding support for Prometheus, which is the de facto standard in the Kubernetes will open Flume up to a much wider range of deployment scenarios and similarly decouple Flume from the monitoring systems of corporates who now no longer ship Flume.
