> As with all software systems, observability into their health is critical.
> With many deployment platforms (be them custom-built or open-source), tasks
> like restarting a misbehaving server in a cluster are completely automated.
> With Kafka, monitoring systems have no definitive source of truth to gauge
> when a server/client has been started. They are left to either use arbitrary
> Kafka-specific metrics as a heuristic or the JVM RuntimeMXBean's StartTime,
> which is not exactly indicative of when the application itself started
> It would be useful to have a metric exposing when the kafka server has
> started.
