I'm trying to figure out if I can report on lack of log entries in a time series, eg:

count number of minutes/buckets with 0 documents/entries in a specified time frame

and then

combine with total number of minutes/buckets in the set to get an approximated average service availability or downtime percentage.

I don't even know where to start on this one. Any thoughts?

You can use [alerting](https://www.elastic.co/products/x-pack/alerting) to get notifications about log count going to zero.

Thanks, realtime notifications are often useful.

However, what I need is to generate a graph or even just a percentage for a given time frame, usually 1 month.

So, specifically, the percentage of minutes with non-zero (or more than some given number) log entries out of all the minutes in the month.
