## Summary Follow up of [first CDN PR](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/169408). Primary focus is replacing our build nr with SHA that allows cache busting and maintains anti-collision properties. ## How to test Start Kibana as usual navigating around the app with the network tab open in your browser of choice. Keep an eye out for any asset loading errors. It's tricky to test every possible asset since there are many permutations, but generally navigating around Kibana should work exactly as it did before regarding loading bundles and assets. ## Notes * did a high-level audit of usages of `buildNum` in `packages`, `src` and `x-pack` adding comments where appropriate. * In non-distributable builds (like dev) static asset paths will be prefixed with `XXXXXXXXXXXX` instead of Node's `Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER` * Added some validation to ensure the CDN url is of the expected form: nothing trailing the pathname ### Checklist Delete any items that are not applicable to this PR. - [x] [Unit or functional tests](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/master/development-tests.html) were updated or added to match the most common scenarios ### Risk Matrix | Risk | Probability | Severity | Mitigation/Notes | |---------------------------|-------------|----------|-------------------------| | We break some first or third party dependencies on existing asset routes | Med | High | Attempting to mitgate by serving static assets from both old and new paths where paths have updated to include the build SHA. Additioanlly: it is very bad practice to rely on the values of the static paths, but someone might be | | Cache-busting is more aggressive | High | Low | Unlikely to be a big problem, but we are not scoping more static assets to a SHA and so every new Kibana release will require clients to, for example, download fonts again. | ### For maintainers - [ ] This was checked for breaking API changes and was [labeled appropriately](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/master/contributing.html#kibana-release-notes-process) --------- Co-authored-by: kibanamachine <42973632+kibanamachine@users.noreply.github.com> |

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 |
