Hi  
Have you tried using the Scripted Fields in Kibana? You can use these to do some calculations on the fly: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/scripted-fields.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/scripted-fields.html)

If you're analyzing time-series data, Timelion also offers some additional mathematical operations: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/timelion.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/timelion.html)

Hope this helps  
Rashmi
