Am trying to configure APM for Apache Storm.

During topology submission, am passing required arguments like -Delastic.apm.service\_name, -Delastic.apm.server\_url, -Delastic.apm.application\_packages & javaagent.

Topologies are also running and i can see required parameters in topology process. Topologies are processing data but no data is coming to APM.

FYI : topology code (kind of API) is not written using any Java framework.

Can someone help me on this? Am I missing some arguments or Storm is not supported or something different? Has anyone configured APM on Apache Storm or Spark?

**Kibana version** : 6.5.4

**Elasticsearch version** : 6.5.4

**APM Server version** : 6.5.4

**APM Agent language and version** : JAVA & elastic-apm-agent-1.4.0

**Browser version** : Chrome latest

**Original install method (e.g. download page, yum, deb, from source, etc.) and version**: yum & docker

**Fresh install or upgraded from other version?** Fresh

**Is there anything special in your setup?** No change. All default configuration

**Description of the problem including expected versus actual behavior. Please include screenshots (if relevant)**:

**Steps to reproduce** :

1. Setup APM ,kibana, etc.
2. Setup Apache Storm & submit topologies (pass required parameters for APM)
3. Perform some activities so that topologies process some data.
4. Check APM dashboard

**Errors in browser console (if relevant)**: none

**Provide logs and/or server output (if relevant)**: none

Hi and thanks for trying out our APM!

Unfortunately, Apache Storm is not supported. Please take a look at [our supported technologies page](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/java/current/supported-technologies-details.html) to know what to expect out of the box.  
However, you can use [our public API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/java/current/public-api.html) to programatically add such support.  
In addition, we are [OpenTracing compliant](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/java/current/opentracing-bridge.html) so you can either look for an existing Apache Storm-OpenTracing integration to be used with our agent as bridge, or you can create one.  
If you do any of those, we will love to hear about your experience 🙂
