WHAT IS KIBANA?
Kibana is data exploration and analytics tool of ELK stack. ELK stack is Log Management Platform and a collection of three open-source products Elasticsearch, Logstash and Kibana. All three products are maintained by Elastic Company Company.
Elasticsearch is a NoSQL database; Logstash is a log pipeline tool used to export normalized data to Elasticsearch and Kibana is a visualization layer that works on the top of Elasticsearch.
Kibana seamlessly integrates with Elasticsearch and provides very effective Visualizations options such as charts, maps, data tables, metric etc. to visualize data. It can be used as handy web interface to setup various business use cases such as Logs and Time series analysis of data, Application monitoring, Business intelligence, Anomaly Detection, Operations intelligence etc.
Data indexing is done by Elasticsearch itself and through Kibana you can visualize it.
Even if you have multiple indices in your single Elasticsearch instance, Kibana can work with them seamlessly.

By using development tools, you can directly interact with Elasticsearch through its powerful but simple REST API and process indexed data.

Good job Shubham. Well organized, informative content and clear Visualization explanations. A few places had some funny edits, but it all worked.
