Configure the Apache Kafka KM to collect AWS MSK broker metrics

Monitor broker metrics, such as resource usage and partition health, in AWS Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (MSK) environments when Java Management Extensions (JMX) is unavailable. With this capability, broker metrics remain available even when JMX endpoints are disabled, ensuring continuous monitoring for AWS MSK environments.​​​​​ For more information, see Configure after installation.

For more information about the new attributes, see Kafka Broker (KFK_BROKER).
