Kafka Monitoring Dashboard question - CPU Usage by Broker

0

Does CPU usage by broker in the Kafka Monitoring section of a cluster correspond the CPU System or CPU User metrics available from the Kafka cluster ? I have a dashboard with these two metrics however they don't correlate to what I see in the CPU usage by broker.

(0.2% in Kafka CPU Usage by Broker VS 8% in the metrics)

Thanks
Jason

We show the CpuSystem metric in the console. You can view the detailed metrics in CloudWatch by clicking the icon on the top right of the monitoring card in the console. Thanks for the feedback we will update this to make it more clear.

You can monitor Amazon MSK cluster health with CloudWatch metrics. This github repository provides details on recommended metrics to monitor as per MSK best practices along with thresholds to setup alerts to monitor cluster health.

You can create CloudWatch metrics dashboard to monitor these recommended metrics by deploying a CloudFormation template, generated via a Python script according to the parameters that are specific to your MSK cluster.
