[jira] [Created] (KAFKA-14921) Avoid non numeric values for metrics

Mickael Maison created KAFKA-14921:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Avoid non numeric values for metrics
                 Key: KAFKA-14921
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-14921
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Mickael Maison
            Assignee: Mickael Maison


Many monitoring tools such as prometheus and graphite only support numeric values. This makes it hard to collect and monitor non numeric metrics.

We should avoid using Gauges with arbitrary types and provide numeric alternatives to such existing metrics.
