So instead of having 20 lines of code for every alert policy like at https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/gcp/api-docs/monito... you create a function that generates all the standardised alerts from concise strongly typed config such as

    cloudSqlAlerts({
        instanceId: 'sql-main',
        highCpu: {
            percent: 70,
            duration: _5min
        },
        highMemory: {
            percent: 80,
            duration: _5min
        },
        highDisk: {
            percent: 80,
            duration: _10min
        },
        deadlockDetection: true
    }, 
    projectNotificationChannels)

The ”DSL” is the typings, and the rest is nothing more than a simple TS program which calls JSON.stringify() with the type-checked config object and writes the resulting string to disk.
