Relevant info:
There is an ES index that is a log of events over time, and the events are categorised (per country). There is a grafana instance which has this ES index as a data source.
In grafana, I would like to make a graph over time of these events, such that the value for any given date on the x-axis would be the total number of events since the beginning of time until that time, reflected on the y-axis.
Basically, a normal, ordinary cumulative-sum graph.
I have read several tutorials, and nothing actually allows this. There is a lot of irrelevant information about showing cumulative sum on the tooltip, which is not useful to me.
Is this possible? If so, how can I do it?
Elasticsearch Data Source - Native PluginGrafana ships with advanced support for Elasticsearch. You can do many types of simple or complex elasticsearch queries to visualize logs or metrics stored in Elasticsearch. You can also annotate your graphs with log events stored in Elasticsearch.
After contacting grafana directly I received the answer that this is not currently possible. All such computation must be done by the data source, not by grafana.
