Monitor an Amazon MSK Provisioned cluster

Amazon MSK gathers Apache Kafka metrics and sends them to Amazon CloudWatch where you can view them. For more information about Apache Kafka metrics, including the ones that Amazon MSK surfaces, see Monitoring in the Apache Kafka documentation.

You can also monitor your MSK cluster with Prometheus, an open-source monitoring application. For information about Prometheus, see Overview in the Prometheus documentation. To learn how to monitor your MSK Provisioned cluster with Prometheus, see Monitor an MSK Provisioned cluster with Prometheus.

(Standard brokers only) Amazon MSK helps you monitor your disk storage capacity by automatically sending you storage capacity alerts when a Provisioned cluster is about to reach its storage capacity limit. The alerts also provide recommendations on the best steps to take to address detected issues. This helps you to identify and quickly resolve disk capacity issues before they become critical. Amazon MSK automatically sends these alerts to the Amazon MSK console, AWS Health Dashboard, Amazon EventBridge, and email contacts for your AWS account. For information about storage capacity alerts, see Use Amazon MSK storage capacity alerts.
