Receive an email notification when an EC2 Reserved Instance has fewer days remaining than a specified threshold. Follow the step-by-step guide to deploy the solution, including creating a Lambda function, deploying a CloudFormation template, and confirming resource creation. Verify the custom metric in CloudWatch, test the CloudWatch alarm, and clean up resources when done.
