My current situation is that I have two different data feeds (Feed A & Feed B) and I have created custom metrics for both feeds:
Next steps is to create alert monitoring for the agreed upon threshold of difference between the two metrics. Say we have agreed that it is acceptable for Order Counts from Feed A to be within ~5% of Order Counts from Feed B. How can I go about creating that threshold and comparison between the two metrics that I have already developed in Datadog?
I would like to send alerts to myself when the % difference between the two data feeds is > 5 % for a daily validation.
