Hi @mangeshs ,

You can connect Kibana to multiple ES node since version 6.6, you can find it in official [documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/production.html)  
Syntax for 7.15 is

kibana.yml

```auto
elasticsearch.hosts:
  - http://localhost:9200
  - http://localhost:9201

```

Regards, Dzmitry

Just to add to this, you cannot point Kibana to multiple Elasticsearch **clusters** like this, only multiple nodes **in the same cluster**.

If you want to point Kibana to multiple clusters, you need to use [CCS](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.15/modules-cross-cluster-search.html).
