This overhaul of the docs structure puts Kibana's documentation more inline with the structure that is used in Elasticsearch. This will help us better organize the docs going forward as more docs are added. This also includes a few necessary content changes for 5.0.

|
|
== Supported platforms
|
|
|
|
Packages of Kibana are provided for and tested against Linux, Darwin, and
|
|
Windows. Since Kibana runs on Node.js, we include the necessary Node.js
|
|
binaries for these platforms. Running Kibana against a separately maintained
|
|
version of Node.js is not supported.
|

|
[[elasticsearch-version]]
|
|
== Elasticsearch version
|
|
|
|
Kibana should be configured to run against an Elasticsearch node of the same
|
|
version.
|
|
|
|
Running different major version releases of Kibana and Elasticsearch (e.g.
|
|
Kibana 5.x and Elasticsearch 2.x) is not supported, nor is running a minor
|
|
version of Kibana that is newer than the version of Elasticsearch (e.g. Kibana
|
|
5.1 and Elasticsearch 5.0).
|
|
|
|
Running different patch version releases of Kibana and Elasticsearch (e.g.
|
|
Kibana 5.0.0 and Elasticsearch 5.0.1) is generally supported, though we
|
|
encourage users to run the same versions of Kibana and Elasticsearch down to
|
|
the patch version.
