Visualize the data distribution of your Elastic Search cluster using a Treemap

Balance

Elastic Search Balance provides an intuitive view of your data distribution acrosss indices, shards, replicas and nodes, using a Treemap.

Usage

You can use Balance as a tool to quickly visualize your data distribution. Just drop your cluster URL into the address box.

Under the hood, two endpoints are accessed read-only:

• GET /_cluster/nodes - fetching node names
• GET /_status - fetching statistics and distribution

You can also set polling for 5, 15, and 60 minutes if you're setting this on a dashboard.

Obviously, while auto-polling, updates are to be as slow as the rate of data accumulating in your indices so there might be no point if you have slow data growth :)

Development

If you'd like to hack on Balance, by all means, feel free. As a guideline, Balance uses:

• Foundation for UI styling and composition.
• D3 for Treemap and general future visualizations.
• Ember for smart binding and overall app framework.

Setting up

Make sure you have npm and bower. Install with:

$ npm install bower npm -g

Install npm dependencies:

$ npm install

Install bower dependencies (components):

$ bower install

Run grunt server for development:

$ grunt server

You should now have an auto-compiling, auto-refreshing development environment and your browser will open pointing to Balance.

Any update will be reflected automatically in your browser.
