Hi and thanks for your question. You won't lose any information that you see in the curated APM UI in Kibana, such as JVM metrics. However, if I remember correctly, actuator also adds some micrometer metrics. The Java agent will auto-detect micrometer and ship all metrics to Elasticsearch so that you can build custom dashboards with them. See Metrics | APM Java Agent Reference [1.x] | Elastic for more details.
