Description

Added reporting task, that reports NiFi flow and JVM metrics to DataDog service. It also reports data to DataDog from every processor. All metrics are represented as Gauges. The name of each metric for processors has following format: “nifi..”. In order to use this module, you need to have DataDog agent installed on your machine. You can configure time period to send metrics to DataDog by changing “DataDog reporting period” property when adding reporting task in NiFi UI.
