index="index1" sourcetype=show_command
| join id [ search index="index2" sourcetype=software_data ]
| sort _time
| stats last(state) as state by name, device_id, interface
| where state != "UP"
| dedup name
| stats count

I want to optimize this query with without join using stats and OR, can anyone help me?

Here index1 has fields like id,device_id and interface
index2 has name,id

Here index1 has suppose 15 ids, then index2 has 30 ids. Out of which 10 ids are common.

I am feeling difficulty here because "by name, device_id, interface" in this name is of index2 field and rest are of index1. So, I am feeling difficult.

This is not answerable without some more information about the data in these indexes 1 and 2. Can you post an event or two example of each (scrubbed is fine)
