Hello,  
I have this report that counts and shows changes between quarters.  
This simple table represents a few challenges I cannot find a kibana solution for.

1. How to show a column with the difference between previous columns
2. How to create this table with the terms (PMs, VMs) in the rows instead of columns

Any suggestions are welcome on those 2 challenges.

My Kibana attempt:  
I unique-count my VMs and PMs and I have the "Average VMs/Host" also stored and easy to display

Hi there, I think what you've built so far is about as close as the Data Table vis can get to the table you shared. As of 6.0, we have an experimental [Time Series Visual Builder visualization](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/time-series-visual-builder.html) which you can use to create a table with custom columns. If you're looking for pivot table functionality, you can follow [this issue](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/5049) for progress on this feature.

Thanks,  
CJ
