Description

StepScalingPolicy currently supports setting evaluationPeriods for the upper and lower autoscaling alarms, but not datapointsToAlarm. This means that to trigger the alarm, all data points in the evaluation period must trigger.

Use Case

I would like to create an autoscaling alarm that triggers when only a portion of the datapoints in the evaluation period have triggered.

Proposed Solution

Add an optional property to StepScalingPolicy for datapointsToAlarm that is passed to the underlying Alarm.
