Canvas is a data visualization and presentation tool that sits within {kib}. With Canvas, you can pull live data directly from {es}, and combine the data with colors, images, text, and your imagination to create dynamic, multi-page, pixel-perfect displays. If you are a little bit creative, a little bit technical, and a whole lot curious, then Canvas is for you.
