           INSTALLATION OF ELASTICSEARCH  IN WINDOWS 11                          



ELASTICSEARCH

Elasticsearch(es) allows you to store, search, and analyze big volumes of data quickly and in near real time.

KIBANA

Kibana is a source-available data visualization dashboard software for Elasticsearch.

INSTALLATION

Here ,the elasticsearch and kibana of version 7.6 is installed on a windows 11 and is connected with python .Updated versions with other languages(java ,node.js ,java and CURL) can also be used in any windows.

Following tasks will be clearly explained step by step in this article.

1. Setup the ES cluster(version==7.6) and kibana(version==7.6).

2. Ensure Connection.

 

STEP 1: Install elasticsearch and kibana(version== 7.6) . Extract  the downloaded zip  folder (elasticsearch and kibana) and keep them together in a single folder( for example lets assume it as main folder).

Link to download elasticsearch(version==7.6)=>https://www.elastic.co/downloads/past-releases/elasticsearch-7-6-0

Link to download kibana(version==7.6)=>https://www.elastic.co/downloads/past-releases/kibana-7-6-0

                                


STEP 2: Open Terminal in main folder that contains both elasticsearch and kibana in

 it .Command prompt can also be used.

You may have a doubt on opening a terminal or command prompt in a particular folder ,

 so lets see that first.

1. Right click on your windows button .You can see  either windows terminal or command prompt option based on the admin status.                    

2.  Open either terminal or command prompt.

                               


3. Copy the path of the main folder(select the folder ,right click ,you can see "copy as path "for windows 11)

4. Paste the path in terminal and remove the quotation ('' '') and press enter.

5. Now you have opened a terminal/command prompt in the main folder(folder that has elasticsearch and kibana)

 

STEP 3:Next,open main folder\elasticsearch-7.6.0-windows-x86_64\elasticsearch7.60\

bin\elasticsearch.

STEP 4: Copy the path and paste in terminal and press enter. After bunch of lines displayed ,it will show “started” .Our elasticsearch is now ready to use.

                             


To confirm it ,web search “localhost:9200” and you will get some information as shown in  below .

                               


Successfully we have installed elasticsearch .Lets proceed with installation of kibana       

STEP 5: Follow the same procedure for kibana .Open main folder\kibana-7.6.2-windowsx86_64\kibana-7.6.2-windows-x86_64\bin\kibana.bat .Copy the path and paste in terminal and press enter .After bunch of lines ,it will end by displaying  “http server running at http://localhost:5601 ” , as shown below

                                


To confirm it ,web search “localhost:5601” and the kibana app will be opened in web as shown in below.

                          



So ,here we came to an end by gaining a knowledge to install elasticsearch and kibana .

Possible ways to work with Linux Building a Linux-based computer which is quite expensive. I myself don't prefer to build a machine when I am a Student. Installing and using Linux in dual boot mode with your existing Windows using a virtual box. This is one of my preferred ways but it consumes more storage. So, this too fails.
