Currently the data for which I want to create visualizations is stored in as a relational database(MySQL).  
To kick start things, I connected Mysql to elasticsearch using JDBC connector, transferred 1 'table' from MySQL to Elasticsearch and formed dashboard in kibana for the data transferred to elasticsearch, which worked fine.  
Now, I have 110 odd tables in MySQL DB which are interconnected(Foreign Keys). Ultimately I want to visualise data in these 110 tables in kibana.  
Since elasticsearch is a non-relational DB, is there any way I can achieve this?
