Elastic search installation process(Windows operating System) (part -1)

Here we are going to start with the Elastic search will not talk about what the elastic search is and what it does that you can find easily on Google, Here I will provide a straight forward and an easy guide to install elastic and Kibana.

First of all Elastic search is easy to install actually you don't have to install just unzip the file by downloading at https://www.elastic.co/downloads/elasticsearch.





1)Click here on Zip extract the Zip to the desired Location(of your choice).

2)Where you extracted just go to bin folder and doubleClick on elasticsearch.bat file.

3) After the process gets over just hit the link http://localhost:9200/ in browser 9200 is the default           port and you will receive a Json response such as
 
  {
  "name" : "hoHWVaa",
  "cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
  "cluster_uuid" : "Ma-s8G6RTxah-IPoB4twKw",
  "version" : {
    "number" : "6.3.2",
    "build_flavor" : "default",
    "build_type" : "zip",
    "build_hash" : "053779d",
    "build_date" : "2018-07-20T05:20:23.451332Z",
    "build_snapshot" : false,
    "lucene_version" : "7.3.1",
    "minimum_wire_compatibility_version" : "5.6.0",
    "minimum_index_compatibility_version" : "5.0.0"
  },
  "tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
}


This means your elastic search is ready to work..!!

Now for Installing Kibana again I will not write here about Kibana but the important thing is you may be able to start your work.


For Kibana installation https://www.elastic.co/downloads/kibana 



Click on Windows sha after gets downloaded just unzip it at your desired location anywhere and  go to  config there you will find kibana.yml file edit in Notepad.



Here you will find elasticsearch.url which will be commented and the url which you have to mention here will be your elastic search instance url that means your elastic search's url we just saw it ran on localhost:9200 , So here in kibana that would be our elasticsearch.url.

Now go to bin folder in kibana and click on kibana.bat file this will run your kibana and after the process gets completed just hit http://localhost:5601 in browser you will get your Kibana started..!!

In the next post we will see how Kibana works and what things can we do with Kibana.
