#### Optional: deploy Kibana to perform advanced queries
If you are an advanced user and have direct access to your Kubernetes cluster using `kubectl` and `helm`, you can deploy Kibana manually.
The following assumes that `helm` has been [initialized](https://v2.helm.sh/docs/helm/) with `helm init`.
Save the following to `kibana.yml`:
```yaml
elasticsearch:
enabled: false
logstash:
enabled: false
kibana:
enabled: true
env:
ELASTICSEARCH_HOSTS: http://elastic-stack-elasticsearch-client.gitlab-managed-apps.svc.cluster.local:9200
```
Then install it on your cluster:
```shell
helm install --name kibana stable/elastic-stack --values kibana.yml
```
To access kibana, forward the port to your local machine:
```shell
kubectl port-forward svc/kibana 5601:443
```
Then, you can visit Kibana at `http://localhost:5601`.
