​

Compute the rate of events per second across the search’s time window:

dataset=myDataset
|| summarize eventsPerSecond = count() / (latestTime() - earliestTime()) by host

Annotate each result with the boundaries of the search’s time range:

dataset=myDataset
|| extend window_start=earliestTime(), window_end=latestTime()
|| export to lake myAuditDataset
