Cloudwatch alarms

The cloudformation defines alarms for monitoring. When fired, the alarms ping a webhook specified as the AlertWebhook parameter, allowing integration with tools like Pager Duty.
Fires if any 5XX responses have been seen within a 5 minute period.
Original Problem: Issues with auth and the internal Dynamo schemas
Rationale: It's a good idea to investigate every unexpected exception!
If such alerts become a regular occurrence and are ignored the alarm should be updated to be less trigger happy.
