Your window into the Elastic Stack

Resolves: #158679 This PR removes the stack version from the EventLog index and datastream names. As we already use `kibana-event-log-*` as indexPattern, `kibana-event-log-ds` is used as DataStream name to avoid creating a breaking change. **Changes:** | Name | Old | New | | -------- | ------- | ------- | | Datastream | `kibana-event-log-<version>` | `kibana-event-log-ds` | | IndexPattern | `kibana-event-log-*` | `kibana-event-log-*` (No change) | | IndexTemplate | `kibana-event-log-<version>-template` | `kibana-event-log-template` | Backing indices still have `<date>-000001` suffix but i think this is expected. ## To verify: Run Kibana and ES in main with `-E path.data=../local-es-data` to save the data. Create a rule and let it run and create some alerts. See the alerts in the rule details page. Stop ES and Kibana Switch to this PR Run Kibana and ES again with `-E path.data=../local-es-data` See the all old and new alerts in the rule details page. The old index created by the main branch should remain, therefore the both old and the new indices (with and without version) should be visible in the console. |

Getting Started
If you just want to try Kibana out, check out the Elastic Stack Getting Started Page to give it a whirl.
If you're interested in diving a bit deeper and getting a taste of Kibana's capabilities, head over to the Kibana Getting Started Page.
Using a Kibana Release
If you want to use a Kibana release in production, give it a test run, or just play around:
- Download the latest version on the Kibana Download Page.
- Learn more about Kibana's features and capabilities on the Kibana Product Page.
- We also offer a hosted version of Kibana on our Cloud Service.
Building and Running Kibana, and/or Contributing Code
You might want to build Kibana locally to contribute some code, test out the latest features, or try out an open PR:
- CONTRIBUTING.md will help you get Kibana up and running.
- If you would like to contribute code, please follow our STYLEGUIDE.mdx.
- For all other questions, check out the FAQ.md and wiki.
Documentation
Visit Elastic.co for the full Kibana documentation.
For information about building the documentation, see the README in elastic/docs.
Version Compatibility with Elasticsearch
Ideally, you should be running Elasticsearch and Kibana with matching version numbers. If your Elasticsearch has an older version number or a newer major number than Kibana, then Kibana will fail to run. If Elasticsearch has a newer minor or patch number than Kibana, then the Kibana Server will log a warning.
Note: The version numbers below are only examples, meant to illustrate the relationships between different types of version numbers.
| Situation | Example Kibana version | Example ES version | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| Versions are the same. | 7.15.1 | 7.15.1 | 💚 OK |
| ES patch number is newer. | 7.15.0 | 7.15.1 | ⚠️ Logged warning |
| ES minor number is newer. | 7.14.2 | 7.15.0 | ⚠️ Logged warning |
| ES major number is newer. | 7.15.1 | 8.0.0 | 🚫 Fatal error |
| ES patch number is older. | 7.15.1 | 7.15.0 | ⚠️ Logged warning |
| ES minor number is older. | 7.15.1 | 7.14.2 | 🚫 Fatal error |
| ES major number is older. | 8.0.0 | 7.15.1 | 🚫 Fatal error |
