Kibana | Akash Network - Your Guide to Decentralized Cloud

Kibana requires Elasticsearch as its data source, so ideally, both should be deployed to Akash if they aren’t accessible elsewhere.

1. Define the Akash Deployment File

---
version: "2.0"

services:
  kibana:
    image: docker.elastic.co/kibana/kibana:8.10.2 # Specify the desired version of Kibana
    env:
      - ELASTICSEARCH_HOSTS=http://your_elasticsearch_url:9200  # Replace with actual Elasticsearch endpoint
    expose:
      - port: 5601 # Kibana default port
        as: 80
        to:
          - global: true

profiles:
  compute:
    kibana:
      resources:
        cpu:
          units: 0.5  # Adjust according to expected workload
        memory:
          size: 2Gi
        storage:
          size: 1Gi
  placement:
    akash:
      pricing:
        kibana:
          denom: uakt
          amount: 100000  # Adjust based on the cost you want to set

deployment:
  kibana:
    akash:
      profile: kibana
      count: 1

save the file as deploy.yaml.

2. Modify the Environment Variables (Optional)

Adjust the environment variables to configure Kibana according to your requirements. The ELASTICSEARCH_HOSTS variable should point to your Elasticsearch instance.

3. Deploying to Akash

Install the Akash CLI if you haven’t already:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ovrclk/akash/master/godownloader.sh | sh

Authenticate with Akash using your wallet:

akash tx authz grant <your_wallet_address> --from <your_wallet_name> --keyring-backend <keyring-backend>

Submit the Deployment:

akash tx deployment create --owner <your_wallet_address> --from <your_wallet_name> --dseq <unique_deployment_sequence> --keyring-backend <keyring-backend> --node https://rpc-akash.<network>.org --chain-id akashnet-2 --file kibana_deployment.yaml

Approve the Bid and Lease: Use Akash CLI or Akashlytics to view and accept bids for your deployment. Once you find a provider, you can finalize the lease.
Access Kibana: Once deployed, Kibana will be accessible at the provider’s public IP.
