B) The rate of failed requests either explicitly implicitly, or by policy - This is the correct answer. Gotta love those golden signals!

I think it could be C) The demand that is placed on your system by the volume of requests, as that can also indicate potential errors.

C) The demand that is placed on your system by me volume of requests - Haha, nice try, but the question is asking about errors, not just overall system load.

I disagree, I believe it is A) The time it takes to service successful as well as failed requests.

A) The time it takes to service successful as well as failed requests - While this is an important metric, it doesn't specifically capture errors.

D) The percent of capacity used by your system for current requests - This might give you an idea of how stressed the system is, but it doesn't directly address errors.

B) The rate of failed requests either explicitly implicitly, or by policy - This seems like the most accurate definition of the golden signal for errors, as it focuses on the failure rate rather than just the overall request time.
