Because we made it easier to send data, you can start exploring visualizations in Kibana on Elastic Cloud Enterprise that much more quickly.

 ## What are Beats and Logstash? [ece_what_are_beats_and_logstash]
 
 Not sure why you need Beats or Logstash? Here’s what they do:
 
-* [Beats](https://www.elastic.co/products/beats) is our open source platform for single-purpose data shippers. The purpose of Beats is to help you gather data from different sources and to centralize the data by shipping it to Elasticsearch. Beats install as lightweight agents and ship data from hundreds or thousands of machines to your hosted Elasticsearch cluster on Elastic Cloud Enterprise. If you want more processing muscle, Beats can also ship to Logstash for transformation and parsing before the data gets stored in Elasticsearch.
-* [Logstash](https://www.elastic.co/products/logstash) is an open source, server-side data processing pipeline that ingests data from a multitude of sources simultaneously, transforms it, and then sends it to your favorite place where you stash things, here your hosted Elasticsearch cluster on Elastic Cloud Enterprise. Logstash supports a variety of inputs that pull in events from a multitude of common sources — logs, metrics, web applications, data stores, and various AWS services — all in continuous, streaming fashion.

         In our examples, we use the `elastic` superuser that every Elasticsearch cluster comes with. The password for the `elastic` user is provided when you create a deployment (and can also be [reset](../../users-roles/cluster-or-deployment-auth/built-in-users.md) if you forget it). On a production system, you should adapt these examples by creating a user that can write to and access only the minimally required indices.
