I want to use Kibana with my Elasticsearch instance. Having downloaded the latest Kibana instance, I realized that it isn't compatible with my Elasticsearch version:
Kibana: This version of Kibana requires Elasticsearch 1.4.4 or higher on all nodes. I found the following incompatible nodes in your cluster: Elasticsearch v1.3.1
Where can I find what versions of Kibana are compatible with which releases of Elasticsearch?
API Gateway ships the OSS versions of Elasticsearch, Kibana and Filebeat; and only the OSS versions of Kibana and Filebeat are compatible with the OSS version of Elasticsearch.
Kibana should be configured to run against an Elasticsearch node of the same version. This is the officially supported configuration.
Kibana on the other hand, is designed to work only with Elasticsearch and thus does not support any other type of data source. In order to extrapolate data from other sources, it needs to be shipped into the ELK Stack (via Filebeat or Metricbeat, then Logstash, then Elasticsearch) in order to apply Kibana to it.
Here's an Elastic Search / Kibana compatibility matrix as taken from https://www.elastic.co/support/matrix#show_compatibility
