I want to load my Spring Cloud zipkin-server with elasticsearch. I think, I tried almost everything I could. but, It still running with in-memory. (when I restart zipkin-server, all data is lost.) I want to set up zipkin with elasticsearch. Please tell me which exact dependencies and applicartion.yml or any other things needed.

Creating custom zipkin servers is an unsupported configuration, but if you must all of the configuration options are documented in the project readme: https://github.com/openzipkin/zipkin/blob/master/zipkin-server/README.md

For the dependencies part, the most important one is zipkin-autoconfigure-storage-elasticsearch-http, here's an full maven pom.xml example:

For the configuration part, you will need the following in you application.yml:

zipkin:
  storage:
    type: elasticsearch
    elasticsearch:
      hosts: localhost:9200

I configured zipkin to use ES as a data storage on top of kubernetes. If it fits your requirement feel free to download and use https://github.com/handysofts/zipkin-on-kubernetes
