Adding legends and info to datavisualization tkiz

Question

I would like to add some information to this graph and I am failing. More specifically,

I want the X axis to have the label "nodes" and the Y axis to be seconds
I also want the first data set to be called "static" and the second data set to be called "dynamic", perhaps using a red and blue color.

I had to make the graph very vertical to make the "linear" data more visible. I appreciate any help or feedback.

Thank you.

Why don't you use pgfplots? I think that it's much easier with it... — Rmano, May 22 '23 at 19:44
