I have inserted some data into elastic search using REST interface.An
example is shown below.
curl -XPOST "http://xxx.xx.xx.xx:9200/bits/metrics/"; -d @$file
curl -XPOST "http://xxx.xx.xx.xx:9200/bits/aaaaaaa/"; -d @$file
curl -XPOST "http://xxx.xx.xx.xx:9200/bits/bbbbbbb/"; -d @$file
curl -XPOST "http://xxx.xx.xx.xx:9200/bits/ccccccc/"; -d @$file
curl -XPOST "http://xxx.xx.xx.xx:9200/bits/ddddddd/"; -d @$file
I basically insert `5` object types which are
metrics
aaaaaaa
bbbbbbb
ccccccc
ddddddd
All these object types are inserted into the same index `bits`. The data is
inserted at regular intervals of say 30 mins, Meaning I add a set of JSON
document every 30 mins to each of the above five types. However only on of
my object type's have `timestamp` as a part of JSON data. I am using
elasticsearch 1.4 and Kibana 3. I can't seem to sepcify the `index` for the
Kibana dashboard. It does expect a timestamp value.
Because of this I suspect I am limited in the kinds of graphs that I can
plot.I would like to plot dual axis graphs and some time series data.Is
this correct assumption?
Is the `index` that Kibana is looking for the same as the `index` in
elasticsearch. In other words Should I rather use the timestamp value (of
when I load the data into elasticsearch) as the elasticsearch rather than
some constant value like `bits` used in the above example.
As my data does not have the timestamp inherently, What format should my
timestamp (that I am supposed to use as the `index` have, If I should)
