announcements from processes that serve segments to build a cache to relate 
each process to the segments it serves. When `watchRealtimeTasks` is true, the

+## Metrics monitors
+
+You can configure Druid services to emit [metrics](../operations/metrics.md) 
regularly from a number of [monitors](#metrics-monitors-for-each-service) via 
[emitters](#metrics-emitters). The following table lists general configurations 
for metrics:
+
+|Property|Description|Default|
+|--------|-----------|-------|
+|`druid.monitoring.emissionPeriod`| Frequency that Druid emits metrics.|`PT1M`|
+|[`druid.monitoring.monitors`](#metrics-monitors-for-each-service)|Sets list 
of Druid monitors used by a service.|none (no monitors)|
+|[`druid.emitter`](#metrics-emitters)|Setting this value initializes one of 
the emitter modules.|`noop` (metric emission disabled by default)|
+
+### Metrics monitors for each service
+
+:::caution
+
+Because each monitor is meant for a specific service or services, make sure 
you configure them for the correct service unless it is meant for any service. 
For example, if a monitor is meant for the Historical service, configure it in 
`historical/runtime.properties` rather than `_common/common.runtime.properties`.
+
+:::
+
+Metric monitoring is an essential part of Druid operations. The following 
table lists the monitors that are available and which service you should 
configure the monitor for:
+
+|Name|Description|
+|----|-----------|
+|`org.apache.druid.client.cache.CacheMonitor`|Emits metrics (to logs) about 
the segment results cache for Historical and Broker services. Reports typical 
cache statistics include hits, misses, rates, and size (bytes and number of 
entries), as well as timeouts and and errors.|
+|`org.apache.druid.java.util.metrics.SysMonitor`|Reports on various system 
activities and statuses using the [SIGAR 
library](https://github.com/hyperic/sigar). Requires execute privileges on 
files in `java.io.tmpdir`. Do not set `java.io.tmpdir` to `noexec` when using 
`SysMonitor`.|

   |`org.apache.druid.java.util.metrics.OshiSysMonitor`|Reports on various 
system activities and statuses using the [OSHI](https://github.com/oshi/oshi),
