GCP Spanner Instance

A Google Cloud Spanner instance is the top-level container that organises one or more Spanner databases. It specifies the regional or multi-regional configuration, the amount of compute capacity (nodes or processing units), and other metadata such as labels. Creating or modifying an instance provisions or alters the underlying hardware and networking resources, so changes can have a direct impact on performance, availability, and cost for every database housed inside it.
For full details, refer to the official Google Cloud documentation: https://cloud.google.com/spanner/docs/instances
