      To create a backup `BACKUP_NAME` asyncronously from table `TABLE_NAME` which expires at
      `2019-03-30T10:49:41Z`, run:

        $ {command} BACKUP_NAME --instance=INSTANCE_NAME --cluster=CLUSTER_NAME
        --table=TABLE_NAME --expiration-date=2019-03-30T10:49:41Z --async

      To create a backup `BACKUP_NAME` syncronously from table `TABLE_NAME` which expires in 2 weeks
      from now, run:

        $ {command} BACKUP_NAME --instance=INSTANCE_NAME --cluster=CLUSTER_NAME
        --table=TABLE_NAME --retention-period=2w

      To create a hot backup `BACKUP_NAME` from table `TABLE_NAME` which expires in 2 weeks
      from now, run:

        $ {command} BACKUP_NAME --instance=INSTANCE_NAME --cluster=CLUSTER_NAME
        --table=TABLE_NAME --retention-period=2w --backup-type=HOT

      To create a hot backup `BACKUP_NAME` from table `TABLE_NAME` which will be converted to a
      standard backup at `2019-03-31T10:49:41Z` and expires in 2 weeks from now, run:

        $ {command} BACKUP_NAME --instance=INSTANCE_NAME --cluster=CLUSTER_NAME
        --table=TABLE_NAME --retention-period=2w --backup-type=HOT
        --hot-to-standard-time=2019-03-31T10:49:41Z

      To create a hot backup `BACKUP_NAME` from table `TABLE_NAME` which will be converted to a
      standard backup in 1 week from now and expires in 2 weeks from now, run:

      $ {command} BACKUP_NAME --instance=INSTANCE_NAME --cluster=CLUSTER_NAME
        --table=TABLE_NAME --retention-period=2w --backup-type=HOT
        --hot-to-standard-time=+P1w
