Hi,  
Somebody knows How can I change the 'WMS compliant map server' of the coordinated map of Kibana for one like Google maps?

You need to get the WMS details from a server that offers tile maps and just add them in the Options for the Coordinate Map in Kibana. On a quick search I couldn't find any server from Google that offers WMS compliant tiles, but there seem to be workarounds, for example a a geo server that can import Google Maps data via their API and then offer WMS for access. You can read more about the OpenGIS WMS standard here: [http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wms](http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wms)
