Yes it is possible to alert on A/B in Datadog.

  1. Go to New Metric - based Monitor page
  2. In Choose the detection method choose Threshold Alert
  3. In the Define the metric section create three entries:
    • Query a: avg:aws.rds.free_local_storage{*} by {dbclusteridentifier}
    • Query b: avg:aws.rds.volume_bytes_used{*} by {dbclusteridentifier}
    • Formula c: a/(a+b)
  4. In the Set alert conditions section, set *Alert threshold to 0.8.
