Mastering Kibana: ELK Stack Visualization & Analytics

Learn Kibana visualization, Elasticsearch integration for advanced data analytics and monitoring solutions.

What you'll learn
- Install and configure the complete ELK Stack environment including Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana for enterprise-level data analytics
- Design and implement Logstash pipelines to ingest structured and unstructured data from multiple sources into Elasticsearch efficiently
- Master data exploration techniques using Kibana Discover interface with Lucene and KQL query languages for advanced searching
- Create professional visualizations using Kibana Lens, Vega, Timelion, and map visualizations to transform raw data into actionable insights
- Build interactive dashboards with filters, drilldowns, and multiple index patterns optimized for performance and user experience
- Configure comprehensive alerting and monitoring systems using Kibana alerts and Elasticsearch Watcher for proactive system management
- Implement enterprise-grade security using role-based access control, spaces, and user permissions to protect sensitive data and dashboards
- Apply machine learning capabilities for anomaly detection, forecasting, and time-series analysis to identify patterns and predict future trends

Requirements
- Basic understanding of data concepts and familiarity with log files or system monitoring (no advanced expertise required)
- Computer with at least 8GB RAM and 20GB free disk space for installing the ELK Stack locally
- Willingness to work with command-line interfaces and configuration files
- No prior experience with Elasticsearch, Logstash, or Kibana needed—we'll start from the basics
