I still think setting up an alerting policy directly in Cloud Monitoring is the simplest solution.

Yeah, I was leaning towards option C as well. It's simple, out-of-the-box, and will get the job done without any extra overhead. Plus, I don't really want to be responsible for managing a Cloud Function or a Composer workflow, you know?

I agree with Vesta. Option C seems like the way to go. It's built-in functionality in Google Cloud, so we don't need to worry about setting up any additional infrastructure like a Cloud Function or Cloud Composer.

Hmm, this is a pretty straightforward question. I think the best approach here is option C - creating an alerting policy in Cloud Monitoring. It's the most direct and efficient way to get alerted when the error rate exceeds the threshold.
