You can push custom metrics to cloudwatch and create alerts as well. The standard way to do is is to use the famous Mon scripts.

Ref: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/mon-scripts.html

It is basically a perl script which you can set on the crontab to run every 5 minutes, and it can grab server metrics like memory, disk, and swap.

to monitor memory you can set this line on crontab

*/5 * * * * ./mon-put-instance-data.pl --mem-used-incl-cache-buff --mem-util --mem-used --mem-avail
