visualization. Buckets are analogous to SQL `GROUP BY` statements. For more information on aggregations, see the main
{ref}/search-aggregations.html[Elasticsearch aggregations reference].
In bar or line chart visualizations, use _metrics_ for the y-axis and _buckets_ are used for the x-axis, segment bar
colors, and row/column splits. For pie charts, use the metric for the slice size and the bucket for the number of
slices.
