Hi. Thanks for the request @engteja007. Just so I can understand your requirement - are you wanting to create a swimlane where you are using a terms aggregation for the x-axis rather than doing a date histogram aggregation on a time field? If so, is this something you could achieve using the Heat Map visualization in Kibana? Here is an example of a Heat Map I've created where I am doing a terms aggregation on an HTTP method field on the x-axis, HTTP status for the y-axis, and then plotting count of requests:

We tried that but there is size constraint on y axis, if the values are more than 20 "error like to many series". where the heatmap is also lagging with scroll down option , Where your plugin has that @peteharverson

Thanks for the clarification regarding the Kibana Heat Map @engteja007. Until the functionality you requested is added to the swimlane, to allow the use of terms for the x-axis split, I would encourage you to raise a couple of issues for the Kibana Heat Map visualization in the Kibana GitHub repo - https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues, to support more than 20 values on the y-axis, and to improve the scrolling behavior.
