While doing experiments with kafka (adding third broker etc), the EventLogging consumer that produces to kafka could not properly connect to kafka, and failed. As the Icinga monitoring picked that issue up and alerted about it, EventLogging's consumer that produces to kafka has been turned off in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/139101/ . Once the kafka setup has been tested and is solid again, let's turn on the EventLogging consumer again that produces to kafka.
Do we currently use this data for anything? If not, I'm inclined to not prioritize this highly until we need it.
I am not aware of any current use of the EventLogging data that gets/got fed into Kafka.
Let's defer this until we do. Too much going on. Putting into backlog.
Just to ease turning it on again, the commit that turned it off is at: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/139101/
