Customize CPU threshold for Autoscaling

Currently, to autoscale a cluster to the next tier, the "Average CPU Utilization must have exceeded 75% of available resources for the past hour." Problem: Some workloads remain near the 75% CPU threshold, given the nature of the workload. This can cause constant scaling events to occur which creates unnecessary noise. We don't want to turn autoscale off because this is a beneficial feature to keep enabled on the cluster. Solution: We want to be able to configure the CPU % threshold for cluster tier scaling. For example, rather than 75%, we'd like the option to set the threshold to 85 or 90%.

    @Admin team any update regarding the above feature request. Customer should be eligible to set their own threshold limits based upon several metrics.

    MongoDB should take this matter very seriously. The current thresholds are not fair to their customers and customers are getting overcharged unnecessarily. Customers should have the right to set their own thresholds.

    we are using the deployment on azure cloud where threshold is 90% but on the some project we have to customize the threshold level so we would like to request you please provide it in the near future.
