Send alert when Usage is very low for AWS resources

Question

Hi All,

Is there a way to Set up Inactive Alert: Setting up alerts for all instances that were running at any time during the last 14 days and alerts you if the daily CPU utilisation was 10% or less and network I/O was 5 MB or less on 4 or more days.

Regards,
Rajesh B
