Better Data Exploration and Visualisation with Elasticsearch and Kibana

slides:none on file

Demonstration uses Elasticsearch and Kibana for real exploration not theory: shows a term vs match query gotcha from analyzers and lowercasing, loads about 10,000 documents to run date histograms, nested aggregations, geographic heatmaps and dashboards, and uses the Python client to bulk ingest; maps and dashboards update live and embedding/kiosk options work; a commercial anomaly detector highlights a feature with a 100x signal increase; overall proves the stack can replace some notebook prototyping when scale and built‑in text/search analysis matter.
