exporter/kafkaexporter/config.go

+type Config struct {
+	configmodels.ExporterSettings `mapstructure:",squash"`
+	// The list of kafka brokers (default localhost:9092)
+	Brokers []string `mapstructure:"brokers"`


Is this required to be a list? what is the behavior?

Kafka client accepts a list of brokers not only a single address. In statically configured environments this can be handy.

It is the initial list of broker addresses that is used to discover all nodes https://docs.confluent.io/current/installation/configuration/consumer-configs.html#bootstrap.servers

exporter/kafkaexporter/kafka_exporter.go

+		}
+		c.Version = version
+	}
+	producer, err := sarama.NewAsyncProducer(config.Brokers, c)


Why async producer vs sync? I would suggest to use sync producer and rely on the queued/retry logic from the exporterhelper if possible.

It is good to have a consistent logic of sending queues and retries across exporters.

I agree on the consistent logic across exporter. We did the same approach in the ES exporter. However this might be suboptimal for a couple of reasons:

multiple serializations if retry happens

driver can immediately retry some failed requests

I have switched to sync producer for now. We can switch to async if we prove that it performs better it is just an impl detail.

Some high-level concerns/questions:

Using of the async processor
Sending individual ResourceSpan instead of the entire pdata.Traces as ExportTraceServiceRequest

	request := &otlptrace.ExportTraceServiceRequest{
		ResourceSpans: pdata.TracesToOtlp(td),
	}

@bogdandrutu I have updated the PR it's ready for the second pass.

bogdandrutu · 2020-07-28T15:03:09Z

exporter/kafkaexporter/config.go

+// Retry defines retry configuration for Metadata.
+type Retry struct {
+	// The total number of times to retry a metadata request when the
+	// cluster is in the middle of a leader election or at startup (default 3).
+	Max int `mapstructure:"max"`
+	// How long to wait for leader election to occur before retrying
+	// (default 250ms). Similar to the JVM's `retry.backoff.ms`.
+	BackOff time.Duration `mapstructure:"backoff"`
+}


use RetrySettings from exporter helper.

This configuration is not for retrying failed batches to the broker.

This struct configures retries for getting the metadata from the broker. This happens at the startup or when the broker is in the middle of the leader election. This setting is useful when there is race condition at broker and producer startup e.g .in docker compose deployment.

also exporterhelper.RetrySettings does not define maximum number of retries [int] and it also exposes other settings that does not apply to Kafka metadata retry.

bogdandrutu · 2020-07-28T15:05:17Z

exporter/kafkaexporter/kafka_exporter.go

+	c.Metadata.Full = config.Metadata.Full
+	c.Metadata.Retry.Max = config.Metadata.Retry.Max
+	c.Metadata.Retry.Backoff = config.Metadata.Retry.BackOff


For consistency with other protocols, I would suggest to use this https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/blob/master/exporter/exporterhelper/queued_retry.go logic to control queuing and retry and disable native retries from the sarama client.

See my comment above #1439 (comment)

bogdandrutu

I think overall is very close to be done.

exporter/kafkaexporter/README.md

+Kafka exporter exports traces to Kafka.
+
+The following settings are required:
+- `protocol_version` (no default): Kafka protocol version e.g. 2.0.0


Please mention in the readme what is the proto that we write to the queue.

There will be a follow-up PR to make that configurable.

Since we already import Jaeger and Zipkin we should make the encoding configurable. This will allow folks easy migration.

@pavolloffay there are few other comments not addressed. Please fix that and we are good to go.

@bogdandrutu I have addressed the comments and added more docs especially explaining that metadata retry is not the retry for failed messages.

bogdandrutu · 2020-07-29T14:33:48Z

@pavolloffay will merge and I will do some cleanups.
