Kibi extends Kibana 5.2.2 with data intelligence features; the core feature of Kibi is the capability to join and filter data from multiple Elasticsearch indexes and from SQL/NOSQL data sources ("external queries").
In addition, Kibi provides UI features and visualizations like dashboard groups, tabs, cross entity relational navigation buttons, an enhanced search results table, analytical aggregators, HTML templates on query results, and much more.

Ideally, you should be running Elasticsearch and Kibana with matching version numbers. If your Elasticsearch has an older version number or a newer major number than Kibana, then Kibana will fail to run. If Elasticsearch has a newer minor or patch number than Kibana, then the Kibana Server will log a warning.
Note: The version numbers below are only examples, meant to illustrate the relationships between different types of version numbers.
Situation | Example Kibana version | Example ES version | Outcome |
---|---|---|---|
