== Introduction
|
|
|
|
Kibana is an open source (Apache Licensed) analytics and visualization tool
|
|
for Elasticsearch. You use Kibana to search, view, and interact with data in
|
|
Elasticsearch indexes. You can easily perform time-based comparisons and
|
|
visualize your data using a variety of charts, tables, and maps.
|
|
|
|
Kibana makes it easy to understand large volumes of data. Its simple,
|
|
browser-based interface enables you to quickly create and share dynamic
|
|
dashboards that display changes to Elasticsearch queries in real time.
|
|
|
|
Setting up Kibana is a snap. You can install Kibana and start exploring your
|
|
Elasticsearch indexes in minutes--no code, no additional infrastructure required.
