DESCRIPTION
    (ALPHA) Creates a new AlloyDB instance within a given cluster.

EXAMPLES
    To create a new primary instance, run:

        $ gcloud alpha alloydb instances create my-instance \
            --cluster=my-cluster --region=us-central1 \
            --instance-type=PRIMARY --cpu-count=4

    To create a new read pool instance, run:

        $ gcloud alpha alloydb instances create my-instance \
            --cluster=my-cluster --region=us-central1 \
            --instance-type=READ_POOL --read-pool-node-count=1 --cpu-count=4

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
     INSTANCE
        AlloyDB instance ID

REQUIRED FLAGS
     --cluster=CLUSTER
        AlloyDB cluster ID

     --cpu-count=CPU_COUNT
        Whole number value indicating how many vCPUs the machine should
        contain. Each vCPU count corresponds to a N2 high-mem machine:
        (https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/general-purpose-machines#n2_machines).
        CPU_COUNT must be one of: 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 96, 128.

     --instance-type=INSTANCE_TYPE
        Specifies instance type. INSTANCE_TYPE must be one of:

         PRIMARY
            PRIMARY instances support read and write operations.
         READ_POOL
            READ_POOL instances support read operations only. Each read pool
            instance consists of one or more homogeneous nodes. * Read pool of
            size 1 can only have zonal availability. * Read pools with node
            count of 2 or more can have regional availability (nodes are
            present in 2 or more zones in a region).

     --region=REGION
        Regional location (e.g. asia-east1, us-east1). See the full list of
        regions at https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/instance-locations.

OPTIONAL FLAGS
     --allowed-psc-projects=[ALLOWED_PSC_PROJECTS,...]
        Comma-separated list of allowed consumer projects to create endpoints
        for Private Service Connect (PSC) connectivity for the instance. Only
        instances in PSC-enabled clusters are allowed to set this field.(e.g.,
        --allowed-psc-projects=project1,12345678,project2)

     --assign-inbound-public-ip=ASSIGN_INBOUND_PUBLIC_IP
        Specify to enable or disable public IP on an instance. On instance
        creation only disabling public IP is allowed. If you want to enable
        public IP, an instance must be created with public IP disabled first,
        then update the instance to enable public IP. ASSIGN_INBOUND_PUBLIC_IP
        must be (only one value is supported):

         NO_PUBLIC_IP
            This disables public IP on the instance.

     --async
        Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to
        complete.

     --availability-type=AVAILABILITY_TYPE
        Specifies level of availability. AVAILABILITY_TYPE must be one of:

         REGIONAL
            Provide high availability instances. Recommended for production
            instances; instances automatically fail over to another zone within
            your selected region.
         ZONAL
            Provide zonal availability instances. Not recommended for
            production instances; instance does not automatically fail over to
            another zone.

     --database-flags=FLAG=VALUE,[FLAG=VALUE,...]
        Comma-separated list of database flags to set on the instance. Use an
        equals sign to separate flag name and value. Flags without values, like
        skip_grant_tables, can be written out without a value after, e.g.,
        skip_grant_tables=. Use on/off for booleans. View the Instance Resource
        API for allowed flags. (e.g., --database-flags
        max_allowed_packet=55555,skip_grant_tables=,log_output=1)

     --insights-config-query-plans-per-minute=INSIGHTS_CONFIG_QUERY_PLANS_PER_MINUTE
        Number of query plans to sample every minute. Default value is 5.
        Allowed range: 0 to 20.

     --insights-config-query-string-length=INSIGHTS_CONFIG_QUERY_STRING_LENGTH
        Query string length in bytes to be stored by the query insights
        feature. Default length is 1024 bytes. Allowed range: 256 to 4500
        bytes.

     --[no-]insights-config-record-application-tags
        Allow application tags to be recorded by the query insights feature.

        Use --insights-config-record-application-tags to enable and
        --no-insights-config-record-application-tags to disable.

     --[no-]insights-config-record-client-address
        Allow the client address to be recorded by the query insights feature.

        Use --insights-config-record-client-address to enable and
        --no-insights-config-record-client-address to disable.

     --read-pool-node-count=READ_POOL_NODE_COUNT
        Read capacity, i.e. number of nodes in a read pool instance.

     --[no-]require-connectors
        Enable or disable enforcing connectors only (ex: AuthProxy)connections
        to the database. Use --require-connectors to enable and
        --no-require-connectors to disable.

     --ssl-mode=SSL_MODE; default="ENCRYPTED_ONLY"
        Specify the SSL mode to use when the instance connects to the database.
        Default SSL mode is ENCRYPTED_ONLY. SSL_MODE must be one of:

         ALLOW_UNENCRYPTED_AND_ENCRYPTED
            SSL connections are optional. CA verification is not enforced.
         ENCRYPTED_ONLY
            SSL connections are required. CA verification is not enforced.

GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
    These flags are available to all commands: --access-token-file, --account,
    --billing-project, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format,
    --help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet,
    --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.

    Run $ gcloud help for details.

NOTES
    This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this
    command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct
    project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early
    access allowlist. These variants are also available:

        $ gcloud alloydb instances create

        $ gcloud beta alloydb instances create
