Nifi metrics in Grafana/Prometheus

[#1]

Hi,

is there a way to show Nifi metrics (like processors' in/out counters) in Grafana? or at least export them to external database (like Prometheus)?

Thanks

In addition to what Tim Spann said, you can also implement a custom ReportingTask to send metrics to any system you like. See the AmbariReportingTask for reference:

Thanks. I will try implement custom ReportingTask, will see how it goes 🙂

We have developed a ReportingTask, that send Prometheus metrics to a Prometheus Pushgateway, similar to the Ambari ReportingTask.
