Summary


In this chapter, we covered how we can create visualizations and dashboards using Beats data. At the beginning, I explained how we can configure Filebeat, Metricbeat, and Packetbeat for sending data into Elasticsearch or Logstash.

After getting the data into Elasticsearch, we can create the index pattern for each Beat. Once the index pattern has been created, we can verify the data using the Kibana Discover option. After getting the data in Kibana, I explained how to create the visualizations and dashboards by integrating the visualizations.

At the end of the chapter, I explained the process to import index pattern and dashboards directly into Kibana from Filebeat, Metricbeat, and Packetbeat. So basically, this chapter was all about Beats and the usage of Beats for dashboard creation and import.
