Adding a Database Group for Google Cloud Spanner

You can create database groups for data that has different backup requirements. For example, you can create a database group for databases that you want to back up once a week.

When you add an instance, a default database group is created for the instance. The databases that you add to the database groups that you create are not backed up by the default database group.
