Describe the feature:
The current Graph visualization isn't very appealing. It would be great to see Elastic's APM "Service Maps" leveraged as custom visualization in place of Graphs. The custom data would be leveraged as well as Elastic's Packetbeat, Heartbeat, and Metricbeat.
Essentially, I think Graphs need to be improved on and follow the same design as APM's Service Maps.
Improvements:
Allow the ability to make custom maps: Make it where the editor can manually make the relationships and be able to create "nodes". This should be independent of the data, with the option to add data. The data added should allow for a variety of data sources. Currently, in Graph, you need to choose one data source which is limiting.
Leveraging Packetbeat/Heartbeat/Metricbeat:
This can be displayed like this:
Describe a specific use case for the feature:
I want to show relationships between data and do better event correlation. This can eventually be leveraged to give a wide overview of a company's infrastructure, everything from Networks, Hosts, and Applications. The ability to customize will allow company's to incorporate different data sources in their maps to show possible correlations.
