Labels: pull-request-available (was: )
> Cannot report backpressure with DatadogReporter
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-24941
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-24941
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Runtime / Metrics
> Affects Versions: 1.10.0, 1.11.0
> Reporter: Ori Popowski
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
>
> When using {{DatadogHttpReporter}} the log is full of these errors:
>
> {code:java}
> 2021-11-16 09:51:11,521 [Flink-MetricRegistry-thread-1] INFO
> org.apache.flink.metrics.datadog.DatadogHttpReporter - The metric
> flink.task.isBackPressured will not be reported because only number types are
> supported by this reporter. {code}
> The code shows that the reason is that {{isBackPressured}} is a Boolean and
> all Gauge values are converted to {{Number}} which results in
> {{ClassCastException}} [1].
> I understand the limitation, but:
> # This bug can be easily fixed
> # Monitoring backpressure is extremely important. Without backpressure
> monitroing there's no way of seeing backpressure history and no alerts.
> h3. Workaround
> For anyone interested, rewrite the
> {{org.apache.flink.metrics.datadog.DGauge}} to map Booleans to integers (0 =>
> false, 1 => true), and use the maven/sbt shade plugin to take your own
> version of this class into the final JAR instead the existing class from the
> flink-metrics-datadog package.
