When polling the NodeJS server for operations data every 10 seconds, the data become coarse-looking when viewing it at fine-grain detail. If you aggregate the data into a date histogram and the bucket size is 10 seconds, then there'll be missing data in every other bucket. That is, unless the time bounds of the buckets line up PERFECTLY with the time that operations data was collected, which is unlikely

.Kibana Configuration Settings
|
||
[horizontal]
|
||
`server.port:`:: *Default: 5601* Kibana is served by a back end server. This setting specifies the port to use.
|
||
`server.host:`:: *Default: "0.0.0.0"* This setting specifies the IP address of the back end server.
|
||
`server.basePath:`:: Enables you to specify a path to mount Kibana at if you are running behind a proxy. This setting
|
||
cannot end in a slash (`/`).
|
||
`server.maxPayloadBytes:`:: *Default: 1048576* The maximum payload size in bytes for incoming server requests.
|
||
`server.name:`:: *Default: "your-hostname"* A human-readable display name that identifies this Kibana instance.
|
||
`elasticsearch.url:`:: *Default: "http://localhost:9200"* The URL of the Elasticsearch instance to use for all your
|
||
queries.
|
||
`elasticsearch.preserveHost:`:: *Default: true* When this setting’s value is true Kibana uses the hostname specified in
|
||
the `server.host` setting. When the value of this setting is `false`, Kibana uses the hostname of the host that connects
|
||
to this Kibana instance.
|
||
`kibana.index:`:: *Default: ".kibana"* Kibana uses an index in Elasticsearch to store saved searches, visualizations and
|
||
dashboards. Kibana creates a new index if the index doesn’t already exist.
|
||
`kibana.defaultAppId:`:: *Default: "discover"* The default application to load.
|
||
`elasticsearch.username:` and `elasticsearch.password:`:: If your Elasticsearch is protected with basic authentication,
|
||
these settings provide the username and password that the Kibana server uses to perform maintenance on the Kibana index at
|
||
startup. Your Kibana users still need to authenticate with Elasticsearch, which is proxied through the Kibana server.
|
||
`server.ssl.cert:` and `server.ssl.key:`:: Paths to the PEM-format SSL certificate and SSL key files, respectively. These
|
||
files enable SSL for outgoing requests from the Kibana server to the browser.
|
||
`elasticsearch.ssl.cert:` and `elasticsearch.ssl.key:`:: Optional settings that provide the paths to the PEM-format SSL
|
||
certificate and key files. These files validate that your Elasticsearch backend uses the same key files.
|
||
`elasticsearch.ssl.ca:`:: Optional setting that enables you to specify a path to the PEM file for the certificate
|
||
authority for your Elasticsearch instance.
|
||
`elasticsearch.ssl.verify:`:: *Default: true* To disregard the validity of SSL certificates, change this setting’s value
|
||
to `false`.
|
||
`elasticsearch.pingTimeout:`:: *Default: the value of the `elasticsearch.requestTimeout` setting* Time in milliseconds to
|
||
wait for Elasticsearch to respond to pings.
|
||
`elasticsearch.requestTimeout:`:: *Default: 30000* Time in milliseconds to wait for responses from the back end or
|
||
Elasticsearch. This value must be a positive integer.
|
||
`elasticsearch.requestHeadersWhitelist:`:: *Default: `[ 'authorization' ]`* List of Kibana client-side headers to send to Elasticsearch.
|
||
To send *no* client-side headers, set this value to [] (an empty list).
|
||
`elasticsearch.shardTimeout:`:: *Default: 0* Time in milliseconds for Elasticsearch to wait for responses from shards. Set
|
||
to 0 to disable.
|
||
`elasticsearch.startupTimeout:`:: *Default: 5000* Time in milliseconds to wait for Elasticsearch at Kibana startup before
|
||
retrying.
|
||
`pid.file:`:: Specifies the path where Kibana creates the process ID file.
|
||
`logging.dest:`:: *Default: `stdout`* Enables you specify a file where Kibana stores log output.
|
||
`logging.silent:`:: *Default: false* Set the value of this setting to `true` to suppress all logging output.
|
||
`logging.quiet:`:: *Default: false* Set the value of this setting to `true` to suppress all logging output other than
|
||
error messages.
|
||
`logging.verbose`:: *Default: false* Set the value of this setting to `true` to log all events, including system usage
|
||
information and all requests.
|
||
`ops.interval`:: *Default: 5000* Set the interval in milliseconds to sample system and process performance metrics.
|
||
The minimum value is 100.
|
||
`status.allowAnonymous`:: *Default: false* If authentication is enabled, setting this to `true` allows
|
||
unauthenticated users to access the Kibana server status API and status page.
