DESCRIPTION

Each Cloud Spanner sample application includes a backend gRPC service backed by a Cloud Spanner database and a workload script that generates service traffic. This command creates and initializes the Cloud Spanner database and runs both the backend service and workload script.

These sample apps are open source and available at https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/cloud-spanner-samples.
