+[[enhancement-6.5.0]]
+=== Enhancements
+
+Discovery::
+* Allows Kibana users to configure the `max_concurrent_shard_requests` param used by Kibana when sending `_msearch requests`. The configuration is exposed as an advanced setting. By default the parameter is not sent, relying on the Elasticsearch default instead. {pull}22379[#22379]
+
+Kibana Home &amp; Add Data::
+* Allows sample data set to install multiple indices {pull}23230[#23230]
+* Adds an optional `now` query parameter that allows installing sample data at a fixed point in time {pull}20678[#20678]
+* Adds an "Uptime Monitors" box to the Metrics tab. This box guides users through installing and configuring Heartbeat and loading the dashboards. {pull}23995[#23995]
+* Adds link to “Upload data from log file” to Kibana home page {pull}24226[#24226]

+* Adds Canvas workpad for sample data {pull}24347[#24347]
+
+Kibana Application::
+* Changes courier so that instead of emitting Elasticsearch errors, which originate with the Elasticsearch client, it will emit `SearchError`. This uncouples error-handling from the internal strategy courier uses to send search requests. {pull}23382[#23382]
+* Adds an option to always present a certificate when connecting to Elasticsearch using `elasticsearch.ssl.alwaysPresentCertificate: true` {pull}24304[#24304]
+

+* Disables auto focus on job wizard select index and search page {pull}21913[#21913]
+* Adds `aria-label` to calendar and jobs list buttons {pull}21922[#21922]
+* Adds validation to the label and time range when editing custom URLs in the Jobs List flyout. {pull}21960[#21960]
+* Adds links to rule editor for quick edit of value or filter {pull}22990[#22990]
+* Removes the job ID from the detector description to avoid duplication {pull}23192[#23192]
+* Moves the “Add custom URL” button and form to the top of the editor {pull}23326[#23326]

+* Introduces custom charts for detectors that use a `rare`  function (Event Distribution Chart) as well as detectors that use an `over` field (Population Distribution Chart) {pull}23423[#23423]
+* Adds validation for the model memory limit value  {pull}21270[#21270]
+* Adds a group selection menu to the jobs management page {pull}21780[#21780]
+* Enables support for the `rare` detector for the charts in Anomaly Explorer and Single Metric Viewer {pull}21524[#21524]
+* Migrates the Explorer Charts to React {pull}22622[#22622]
+* Migrates Anomaly Explorer Swimlanes to React {pull}22641[#22641]
+* Tweaks the design of the Explorer Chart to more clearly visualize how the time range of the cell selected in the swimlane relates to the time span shown in the charts {pull}22955[#22955]
+* Enables the display of contextual data for population charts using other metrics than `count` {pull}24083[#24083]
+
+Management::
+* Adds opt in for telemetry to start trial and upload license screens {pull}22925[#22925]
+* Adds a home page section for rollups that links to the rollup jobs CRUD UI {pull}24421[#24421]
+* Polishes the Index Management UI {pull}21979[#21979]
+* Makes the width of the import saved objects dialog narrower so it doesn't obscure the UI {pull}22011[#22011]
+* Adds ingest node updates for auto-complete in console {pull}24100[#24100]
+* Adds autocomplete rules for CCR to Kibana console. Also fixes an issue with the documentation link URL manipulation {pull}24739[#24739]
+
+Monitoring::
+* Adds a monitoring UI for APM {pull}22975[#22975]
+
+Operations::

+* Adds new K7 header navigation as an optional UI {pull}23300[#23300]
+
+Reporting::
+* Adds ability to disable polling for idle jobs {pull}24295[#24295]
++
+A new `kibana.yml` config setting, `xpack.reporting.queue.pollEnabled`, can be set to `false` (default is `true`) to stop the {kib} instance from running polling workers to claim and execute reporting jobs. This makes it possible to configure a Kibana instance to only act as a Reporting worker, and other instances to do everything for Reporting (queuing, listing, provide downloads, and so on) except for executing reporting jobs.
+
+Sharing::
+* Implements Inspect panel for saved searches {pull}22376[#22376]
+
+Visualizations::
+* Adds support for `format:number:defaultLocale` and `format:number/bytes/percent:defaultPattern` settings in Time Series Visual Builder {pull}21444[#21444]
+* Introduces date histogram time base configuration to EditorConfig.  This is needed to support rollups in Kibana. {pull}22344[#22344]

+== 6.5.0 release highlights
+++++
+<titleabbrev>6.5.0</titleabbrev>
+++++
+
+coming[6.5.0]
+
+Each release of {kib} brings new features and product improvements. 
+Here are the highlights of the features that were added in 6.5.0 and 
+how the user experience improved.
+
+Refer to the <<release-notes-6.5.0, {kib} 6.5.0 Release Notes>> for a list of bug fixes and 
+other changes.
+
+[float]
+=== Organize your work in spaces
+
+Spaces is one of our most highly requested features. Spaces allow you to organize 
+your saved objects into meaningful categories.  For example, you might place all 
+sales visuals in a sales space and all logging objects in a logging space. 
+
+[role="screenshot"]
+image::images/highlights_6_5_select-space.png[Select your space dashboard]
+
+You can create as many spaces as you need, change spaces at any time, and move 
+saved objects between spaces. With security enabled, you can control which roles 
+and users have access to which spaces using RBAC.
+
+To create, edit, and delete spaces, use *Management > Spaces*.  
+Or, if you prefer to create your spaces programmatically, you can use the <<spaces-api, {kib} Spaces API>>.
+
+[float]
+=== Monitor cross-cluster replication (beta)
+
+Monitoring includes a new UI for monitoring {ref}/ccr-apis.html[cross-cluster replication] as a beta 
+feature in 6.5. Cross-cluster replication gives you resiliency in case the primary 
+cluster fails--a secondary cluster serves as a hot backup. With the UI, you can 
+monitor how indices are replicated from one cluster to another and view detailed
+information on the leader index, the following indices, and the shards.  
+You’ll also get verification on whether the replication process is viable.
+
+[role="screenshot"]

+[float]
+=== Showcase your data in Canvas (beta)
+
+Canvas is {kib}’s new place for showcasing your data live in a pixel-perfect design. 
+Starting with a blank workpad, you can create a story about your data by combining 
+static content (text, images, and shapes) with data-driven elements (charts, tables, 
+images, and many others).  Each dynamic element is connected to a sample data 
+source by default, so you can experiment with it before connecting to your own data. 
+Canvas supports multiple languages for querying Elasticsearch: es docs, SQL, and Timelion syntax. 
+
+Canvas tools have rich styling capabilities, allowing users to change colors and 
+styles of both static and dynamic elements. Canvas is designed so you can tweak 
+an element’s content and style using the UI, or go deeper and edit the expressions 
+that create the element or the css styling. In short, Canvas gives you everything 
+you need to showcase your live data, your way.  
+

+=== Create and manage rollup jobs
+
+{kib} has a new Management UI for creating, starting, stopping, and deleting rollup
+jobs. Rollups is a recent addition to Elasticsearch and {ref}/rollup-apis.html[APIs for creating and 
+managing rollups] have been available since 6.4.  A rollup index summarizes historical 
+data and stores it compactly for future analysis, so you can query, aggregate, 
+and visualize this data using a fraction of the storage.  A rollup job is a periodic 
+task that aggregates the data for the rollup index. To navigate to the UI, go to 
+*Management*, and under *Elasticsearch*, click *Rollup Jobs*.
+
+[role="screenshot"]
+image::images/highlights_6_5_rollup.png[Create a rollup job dashboard]
+
+[float]
+=== View rolled up data in visualizations (beta)
+
+{kib} now has beta features for visualizing rolled up data. You can create index 
+patterns that use rollup indices or mix rollup and raw indices to visualize all 
+data together. Most visualizations support rolled up data, with the exception of 
+Timelion, Visual Builder, and Vega visualizations. You can also create dashboards 
+that use visualizations based on rolled up and raw data. Finally, both rolled up 
+and raw data are available in Discover.
+
+[role="screenshot"]
+image::images/highlights_6_5_rollup-viz.png[Beats management UI]
+
+[float]
+=== Manage your Beats in a central location (beta)
+
+The Beats management UI is your one-stop shop for centrally managing your Beats 
+deployments. This new UI saves you time because you no longer have to log onto the 
+machine where the Beat is deployed to conduct configuration updates.  From the UI, 
+you can manage the enrollment of multiple Beats and update their configurations as 
+a fleet. You must have security enabled to access the Beats UI. This feature is 
+initially only available for Filebeat and Metricbeat. 
+
+[role="screenshot"]
+image::images/highlights_6_5_beats.png[Beats management UI]
+
+[float]
+=== Monitor and manage your infrastructure (beta)
+
+{kib} has two new beta features for logging and metrics use cases, Infrastructure 
+and Logs, both available from the side navigation.  With Infrastructure, you can 
+explore infrastructure metrics and logs for common servers, containers, and services. 
+
+[role="screenshot"]
+image::images/highlights_6_5_kubernetes.png[Example infrastructure management dashboard]
+
+Using Logs, you can stream logs in real time or scroll through historical views in 
+a console-like experience
+
+[role="screenshot"]
+image::images/highlights_6_5_logs.gif[Animated view of log management features]
+
+[float]
+=== Distributed tracing in APM (beta)
+
+The APM UI now supports distributed tracing as a beta feature in 6.5. Distributed 
+tracing enables you to analyze and view performance throughout your microservices 
+architecture by tracing all requests.  These requests range from the initial web 
+request to your frontend service to queries made to your backend services. 
+This gives you a trace of how your services interact with one another and enables 
+you to pinpoint bottlenecks faster. 
+
+[role="screenshot"]
+image::images/highlights_6_5_tracing.png[Example of tracing data in APM UI]
+
+[float]
+=== Get started with two new sample data sets
+
+{kib} has two new, one-click sample data sets tailored to the new user experience.  
+If you’re interested in business analytics, install the eCommerce data set, which 
+has visualizations for product-related information, such as cost, revenue, and price.  
+If you’re looking to analyze website traffic, check out the web logs sample data set. 
+To access the sample data, go to the {kib} home page and click *Load a data set and a {kib} dashboard*.
+
+In addition to a traditional dashboard, each data set includes a ready-to-go
+Canvas workpad for you to play with.
+
+[role="screenshot"]
+image::images/highlights_6_5_sample-canvas.png[Canvas workpad included with new sample data sets]
+
+[float]
+=== Visualize data from a log file
+
+Machine learning features are now available for users on a Basic license. The Data 
+Visualizer helps you understand the metrics and fields in your data in preparation 
+for further analysis. With the new File Data Visualizer, you can upload a CSV, NDJSON, 
+or log file. The File Data Visualizer uses the new File Structure API to identify 
+the file format and field mappings. You can then choose to import the data into an 
+Elasticsearch index. The log file import feature is experimental in 6.5, and is 
+limited to files up to 100 MB in size.
