AWS Lambda Alerts and Dashboard

The cloudwatch-lambda-alerts library provides an easy way to create alerts for AWS Lambda functions using Amazon CloudWatch. With this library, you can monitor key metrics such as invocations, errors, duration, throttles, and memory usage, and trigger alarms based on certain thresholds. This library also generate CloudWatch dashboard for the lambda functions.

This library will create alerts for AWS Lambda which includes:

• Invocations (if the invocations reached 90% of allocation)
• Errors (when there is any error in the lambda)
• Duration (when lambda reached 90% of the duration)
• Throttles (when lambda is being throttled for 10)
• Memory (when lambda reached 90% of memory allocated)

  requiredAlarms: true,
  topic,
});

alertsStack.addLambda({
  functionName: 'Function Name 1',
  displayName: 'Function Name 1',
  memorySize: memorySize, // memory size in MB
