Forward Xu commented on FLINK-15438:
------------------------------------
hi [~joern] can you give an example of a specific counter? This can be easily
checked and resolved.
> Counter metrics are incorrectly reported as total counts to DataDog
> -------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-15438
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-15438
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Runtime / Metrics
> Affects Versions: 1.9.1
> Reporter: Jörn Kottmann
> Priority: Minor
>
> The Flink semantics of a counter are not matching with the counters in
> DataDog.
> In Flink a counter counts the total of increment and decrement calls.
> In DataDog a counter is a rate over the reporting interval.
> The Flink implementation of the DataDog reporter seems to send the Flink
> counter value each time the metrics are reported. Correct would be to send
> the delta of the counter since the last report.
> There are some features in DataDog which are easier to use if this could be
> fixed, e.g. alerts based on counters.
