Hello!
I am trying to use Kibana 4.1 (with Elasticsearch 1.7.2) for initial 100k+ dataset of LARGE objects (900+ fields)
for visualization and analysis of data.
Here is my experiences so far
-
[Discover] step in kibana right after click is horrendous slow as it tries to show 900+ fields of "first"? objects.
Is there any way to disable such search right after click to [Discover]? -
In [Discover] and [Visualiize] steps left side bar is too narrow. Can it be made resizeable and remember that setting?
-
We have a complex/nested JSON structure and looking through all fields in [Discover] is very inconvenient. Any form of field search, etc. would be usable.
-
Is there any way for all visualization on dashboard to export resulting (new) datasets, i.e. aggregate data into another elasticsearch indice? Perhaps in real time?
-
On data load Elasticsearch locks field type to first found. For example room number - if first incoming value is 1 it will become number. Afterwards all future non-numeric values are invalid for example - 1a (perfectly valid for room number)
Is there any way to override this? This question is more specific to Elasticsearch I suppose.
