Kibana: Installation
Kibana is provided in several formats: tar.gz, deb, rpm, zip, docker image. We going to use archive distribution.
Download the package from https://www.elastic.co/downloads/kibana, extract it and run
Kibana is a web application that you access through port 5601. So, just open http://localhost:5601 now and you will see default UI of Kibana.
By default, Kibana connects to the Elasticsearch instance running on localhost. To connect to a different Elasticsearch instance, modify the Elasticsearch URL in the kibana.yml configuration file and restart Kibana.
For now we don’t have any documents to display, so it should be an empty one.
You can reach the Kibana server’s status page by navigating to http://localhost:5601/status The status page displays information about the server’s resource usage and lists the installed plugins.
