JIRA: - KAFKA-17876Getting issue details... STATUS
Motivation
The metrics were originally named in the `kafka.<COMPONENT>` format but were unexpectedly altered when we moved Java classes from the `kafka.server` package to the `org.apache.kafka.server` package as part of [commit](3.7).
Subsequent developers didn’t notice this change and began using the new package name as the `metricName`. The correct naming should actually revert to `kafka.<COMPONENT>`.
This KIP aims to standardize Kafka metric naming by updating the `org.apache.kafka.server:type=AssignmentsManager` metric to follow the `kafka.<COMPONENT>` convention used by other Kafka metrics.
Public Interface
org.apache.kafka.server.AssignmentsManager
Proposed Changes
Rename the `org.apache.kafka.server:type=AssignmentsManager` metric to `kafka.server:type=AssignmentsManager`.
This change will impact external monitoring systems that rely on this metric, and corresponding modifications will be needed to support the new name.
Compatibility, Deprecation, and Migration Plan
- We will add a deprecated annotation on `AssignmentsManager#QUEUED_REPLICA_TO_DIR_ASSIGNMENTS_METRIC`.
- Add new `AssignmentsManager#QUEUED_REPLICA_TO_DIR_ASSIGNMENTS_METRIC_NAME` which `metricName` is `kafka.server:type=AssignmentsManager` and add it to `AssignmentsManager#metricsRegistry`.
- Delete `AssignmentsManager#QUEUED_REPLICA_TO_DIR_ASSIGNMENTS_METRIC` at the next major release and remove it from `AssignmentsManager#metricsRegistry`.
