Let's evaluate each option based on the requirement of sub-millisecond latency for globally stored IoT data:

A. Spanner with Caching: While Spanner offers strong consistency and global scalability, the base latency might not consistently be sub-millisecond for all read/write operations globally. Introducing caching adds complexity and doesn't guarantee sub-millisecond latency for all initial reads or cache misses.

B. Bigtable: Bigtable is a highly scalable NoSQL database service designed for low-latency, high-throughput workloads. It excels at storing and retrieving large volumes of time-series data, which is typical for IoT sensor data. Its architecture is optimized for single-key lookups and scans, providing consistent sub-millisecond latency, making it a strong candidate for this use case.

C. BigQuery: BigQuery is a fully managed, serverless data warehouse designed for analytical queries on large datasets. While it's excellent for analyzing IoT data in batch, it's not optimized for the low-latency, high-throughput ingestion and retrieval required for real-time IoT applications with sub-millisecond latency needs.

D. Cloud Storage with Cloud CDN: Cloud Storage is object storage and is not designed for low-latency transactional workloads. Cloud CDN is a content delivery network that caches content closer to users for faster delivery, but it's not suitable for the primary storage of rapidly incoming IoT sensor data requiring sub-millisecond write latency.

Google Cloud Documentation References:

Cloud Bigtable Overview: - This document highlights Bigtable 's suitability for low-latency and high-throughput applications, including IoT. It mentions its ability to handle massive amounts of data with consistent performance.

Spanner Overview: - While Spanner offers low latency, Bigtable is generally preferred for extremely high-throughput, low-latency use cases like raw sensor data ingestion due to its optimized architecture for such workloads.

BigQuery Overview: - This emphasizes BigQuery 's analytical capabilities rather than low-latency operational workloads.

Cloud Storage Overview: - This describes Cloud Storage as object storage, not ideal for sub-millisecond latency reads and writes required for real-time IoT data.

"The Cloud Spanner to Cloud Storage Text template is a batch pipeline that reads in data from a Cloud Spanner table, optionally transforms the data via a JavaScript User Defined Function (UDF) that you provide, and writes it to Cloud Storage as CSV text files."

"The Dataflow connector for Cloud Spanner lets you read data from and write data to Cloud Spanner in a Dataflow pipeline"

Specifying conditions for alerting policies This page describes how to specify conditions for alerting policies. The conditions for an alerting policy define what is monitored and when to trigger an alert. For example, suppose you want to define an alerting policy that emails you if the CPU utilization of a Compute Engine VM instance is above 80% for more than 3 minutes. You use the conditions dialog to specify that you want to monitor the CPU utilization of a Compute Engine VM instance, and that you want an alerting policy to trigger when that utilization is above 80% for 3
