Elasticsearch and Kibana Docker images have been released in beta form, tracking the latest versions of Elasticsearch and Kibana 5.0, and are pre-installed with the x-pack extension. Hosted on Elastic's Docker Registry, these images can be easily deployed using Docker Compose, provided that the necessary prerequisites are met, and instructions are available on GitHub. Users can launch an Elasticsearch and Kibana stack, view logs, access the Kibana interface, and manage data through simple commands. The beta images allow data persistence across sessions but are not recommended for production use until the full release. Suggestions and contributions are encouraged via issues and pull requests on GitHub.
