At the Elastic{ON} 2018 conference, the Ask Me Anything (AMA) Booth was a bustling hub where users, customers, and partners engaged with Elasticians to discuss products, processes, and use cases. The booth was staffed by a diverse team, including support engineers, consultants, product managers, and developers, who used tools like dry-erase markers and notebooks to facilitate in-depth conversations. This event also featured the Canvas workpads, a technology preview offering a creative space for live data visualization, showcased through various configurations and visual elements. The workpads included a range of dynamic visual components such as group bubbles, image fill elements, a dynamic bar chart, and a consultation time series, all designed to display data gathered from an internal survey app in real-time. The data was processed using Elasticsearch and visualized using different techniques and tools within the Canvas platform, demonstrating the capabilities of Canvas in presenting complex data in an engaging and understandable format.
