Hey all. I'm not sure what to document with this one. I made a few updates to our existing docs, but most charts have tooltips explaining what a user is looking at. See elastic/kibana#160568 for the minor updates that I made.

@akhileshpok and @AlexanderWert is there a workflow you have in mind that you want me to document?

[gbamparop]

I think just mentioning that there are metrics available along with a screenshot, as you already did, will be sufficient.

Cool beans. Thanks!
