Deploy a Kibana instance
editDeploy a Kibana instance
editTo deploy your Kibana instance go through the following steps.
-
Specify a Kibana instance and associate it with your Elasticsearch cluster:
cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f - apiVersion: kibana.k8s.elastic.co/v1 kind: Kibana metadata: name: quickstart spec: version: 8.17.1 count: 1 elasticsearchRef: name: quickstart EOF
-
Monitor Kibana health and creation progress.
Similar to Elasticsearch, you can retrieve details about Kibana instances:
kubectl get kibana
And the associated Pods:
kubectl get pod --selector='kibana.k8s.elastic.co/name=quickstart'
-
Access Kibana.
A
ClusterIP
Service is automatically created for Kibana:kubectl get service quickstart-kb-http
Use
kubectl port-forward
to access Kibana from your local workstation:kubectl port-forward service/quickstart-kb-http 5601
Open

You can temporarily acknowledge the warning for the purposes of this quick start but it is highly recommended that you configure valid certificates for any production deployments.Login as the
