Hi ,  
I have the below kind of data

```auto
counter1:
{
   "name":"name1",
   "vnf_type":"ZTS",
   "counter":"cpu",
   "value":"10",
   "event_time_stamp":"2021-02-15T02:44:19Z"
}

```

I would like to compare the value "value" of two type of "counter" at a specific period of "event\_time\_stamp". How can I achieve this?  
Thank you in advance.

you could compare the values over time:

- go to visualizations, create new visualization, select Lens
- pull value field on the chart
- lens will create the chart, on the right you can see it created vertical axis with "median of value" ... click it, and change it to "last value of"
- click on advanced and under filter by enter `counter: "cpu"`
- now close the vertical axis config, and add a new one
- configure it just as above one, except that for filter you enter a different filter

if you want to show just the last value, create a new chart (Lens), select metric as a chart type  
for the metric select last value of "value" and for breakdown select top values of "counter"
