Elasticsearch is a distributed search and analytics engine for indexing and querying large volumes of data, and Kibana is the visualization and exploration interface used to search, analyze, and present that data. In this path, you’ll learn an analyst-friendly workflow for exploring datasets in Kibana Discover, querying with ES|QL and Query DSL, and summarizing results with aggregations. You’ll finish by building visualizations and dashboards you can share with stakeholders.
