>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Runtime / Metrics
>    Affects Versions: 1.2.0
>            Reporter: Bowen Li

> Currently, Flink's Gauge is defined as 
> ```java
> public interface Gauge<T> extends Metric {
> 	T getValue();
> }
> ```
> But it doesn't make sense to have Gauge take generic types other than Number. And it blocks I from finishing FLINK-6013, because I cannot assume Gauge is only about Number. So the class should be like
> ```java
> public interface Gauge<T extends Number> extends Metric {
> 	T getValue();
> }
> ```
