The Amazon CloudWatch Monitoring Scripts for Linux and Windows demonstrate how to produce and consume the Amazon CloudWatch custom metrics.

The scripts for Windows include sample PowerShell scripts, which comprise scripts to reports memory, page file, and disk space utilization metrics for an Amazon EC2 Windows instance.

Refer a guide http://www.newvem.com/how-to-detect-and-shutdown-an-unused-aws-ec2-instance/. This shows how can a user shutdown or stop an instance based on CPU Utilization.

This offering helps optimize your resources and save cost when instance is idle.
