description Kibana Overview
Kibana is the visualization layer for the Elastic Stack (ELK). It is designed to work with Elasticsearch, making it the primary tool for searching, analyzing, and visualizing log data. It is incredibly powerful for security teams, developers, and system administrators who need to investigate logs and monitor system performance. While it is not a general-purpose BI tool, its ability to handle massive volumes of unstructured log data makes it an essential component of the modern data stack.
