property description required? default
druid.emitter.statsd.hostname The hostname of the StatsD server. yes none
druid.emitter.statsd.port The port of the StatsD server. yes none
druid.emitter.statsd.prefix Optional metric name prefix. no ""
druid.emitter.statsd.separator Metric name separator no .
druid.emitter.statsd.includeHost Flag to include the hostname as part of the metric name. no false

Druid to StatsD Event Converter

Each metric sent to StatsD must specify a type, one of [timer, counter, guage]. StatsD Emitter expects this mapping to be provided as a JSON file. Additionally, this mapping specifies which dimensions should be included for each metric. If the user does not specify their own JSON file, a default mapping is used. All metrics are expected to be mapped. Metrics which are not mapped will log an error. StatsD metric path is organized using the following schema: <druid metric name> : { "dimensions" : <dimension list>, "type" : <StatsD type>} e.g. query/time" : { "dimensions" : ["dataSource", "type"], "type" : "timer"}

For metrics which are emitted from multiple services with different dimensions, the metric name is prefixed with the service name. e.g. "coordinator-segment/count" : { "dimensions" : ["dataSource"], "type" : "gauge" }, "historical-segment/count" : { "dimensions" : ["dataSource", "tier", "priority"], "type" : "gauge" }

For most use-cases, the default mapping is sufficient.
