Stop using Kibana Index Patterns

In this video I am showing how index patterns were defined in previous versions of Elasticsearch.
For me cumbersome was naming of index pattern because name was equal to indices list that were part of that index pattern definition. Sometimes it can be combined with wildcards but it does not change the fact that name of index pattern cannot be independent from index names.

Since Elasticsearch they introduce new concept of data views which sort out issues mentioned above. And here change has come.
