Visualize Solr Data with Banana Andrew Thanalertvisuti

Banana Overview What is Banana project?

The Banana project is a fork of Kibana, and works with all kinds of time series and non-time series data stored in Apache Solr. It uses Kibana’s powerful dashboard configuration capabilities, ports key panels to work with Solr, and provide significant additional capabilities, including new panels that leverage D3.js. Goals:

- to create a rich and flexible Uis - enable users to rapidly develop end-to-end applications - to leverage the power of Apache Solr
