Visualizing performance data

I believe I now the type of graphs I would like to see, but have now idea how to begin. I have a postgres database with many columns. I want to see a Transactions per Seconds. I have one but can not get it refined to the way I like. I want a stacked bar graphs where I show time per service (such as database read time, application time, etc) for each transaction. I have about 6 times, some require math such as total transaction time - database time. I am very much of a newbie to both grafana and attempting to articulate what I want to see.

Welcome @bradtaylor to the Grafana forum.

Forgetting about Grafana for a moment, can you write a query in PostgreSQL that produces a table of the data that you wish to visualize? Please post a small sample set of your unfiltered data table(s) and the query(ies) that you have written to capture the data that you want to eventually see in Grafana.
