== Using the Infrastructure UI
|
|
|
|
Use the Infrastructure UI in {kib} to monitor your infrastructure and identify
|
|
problems in real time.
|
|
|
|
You start with an overview of your infrastructure.
|
|
Then you can use the interactive UI to drill down into areas of interest.

[[infra-cat]]
|
|
=== View your infrastructure by hosts or container
|
|
|
|
Select the high-level view: *Hosts*, *Kubernetes*, or *Docker*.
|

When you change views, you can see the same data through the perspective of a
|
|
different category.

[[infra-search]]
|
|
=== Use the power of Search
|
|
|
|
The Search bar is always available. You can use it to perform adhoc or structured searches.
|
|
The Search feature can surface the information you're looking for, even if the
|
|
other options you have selected would normally filter it out.

This filter helps you start focusing on potential problem areas that may need
|
|
further investigation. You'll see metrics that are most relevant for hosts or
|
|
the container you selected.

[[infra-group]]
|
|
=== Group components

|
your physical, virtual, and container-based infrastructure.
|
|
Examples include Availability Zone, Machine Type, Project ID, and Cloud Provider
|
|
for Hosts, and Namespace and Node for Kubernetes.

|
other settings.
