How to Connect Elasticsearch to Power BI

Elasticsearch is a powerful, open-source search and analytics engine that enables enterprise companies to store, search, and analyze large volumes of data in real-time. With its distributed architecture and capabilities for scaling, Elasticsearch is widely used for log and event data analysis, full-text search, and business analytics. Enterprise companies benefit from Elasticsearch's fast, accurate search results and efficient handling of complex data, which helps them make data-driven decisions more effectively.

Power BI is a suite of business analytics tools developed by Microsoft that helps enterprise companies visualize and share insights from their data. Power BI enables users to connect to hundreds of data sources, simplify data prep, and create interactive, visually appealing reports and dashboards. With its ability to handle large datasets, advanced data modeling features, and seamless integration with other Microsoft products, Power BI is a popular choice for enterprise companies looking to gain valuable insights from their data and drive informed decision-making.

Linking Elasticsearch with Power BI optimizes your data pipeline by removing the need for manual interventions. Follow these steps for a seamless connection:
