Hello,  
I am building a proof of concept using Elasticsearch, Logstash and Kibana for one of my projects. One of the requirements for my project is to search the data in the Elastic Search based on the values based in a CSV file.

Thanks

Hello,

If you are going to import CSV in that case can install Elasticsearch cluster & Kibana. Post that from Kibana can import the CSV file

In your scenario Logstash installation is not needed since you will be importing the CSV file for the POC.

Thanks
