Visualizing COVID-19 with Elastic

There are various publicly available data-sources that we may leverage to visualize the COVID-19 pandemic. We will use the materials created by SiScale (https://www.siscale.com/) as they have composed a rather elegant means of ingesting COVID-19 data. This document is designed to be an instructional guide on how to implement this solution locally or with the Elastic Cloud. We will first configure the necessary components, ingest the data source, then show how to create the additional Machine Learning jobs as well as creating a Canvas dashboard.

GetSet Learning: Evolving with Elastic

Evolving With Elastic Ray Myers and Eric Bjerstedt, GetSet Learning So you’ve got a search index - now what? What benefits will that investment provide as your product grows?
