Kibana

Kibana enables you to interactively explore, visualize, and share insights into your data and manage and monitor the stack.

To use Kibana, we need to pass an enrollment token that is provided from the ElasticSearch server

  • this enrollment token is output to the log the first time we run the ES server.

Using with Docker

guide

  • You may need to mount a volume on the kibana container in order to access a kibana.yml locally
    • give it contents:
server.host: "0.0.0.0"
  • if Kibana web portal is stuck "configuring" forever, just reload the URL and enter username/password
