/**
 * <p>
 * Resource Groups lets you organize Amazon Web Services resources such as Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud instances,
 * Amazon Relational Database Service databases, and Amazon Simple Storage Service buckets into groups using criteria
 * that you define as tags. A resource group is a collection of resources that match the resource types specified in a
 * query, and share one or more tags or portions of tags. You can create a group of resources based on their roles in
 * your cloud infrastructure, lifecycle stages, regions, application layers, or virtually any criteria. Resource Groups
 * enable you to automate management tasks, such as those in Amazon Web Services Systems Manager Automation documents,
 * on tag-related resources in Amazon Web Services Systems Manager. Groups of tagged resources also let you quickly view
 * a custom console in Amazon Web Services Systems Manager that shows Config compliance and other monitoring data about
 * member resources.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * To create a resource group, build a resource query, and specify tags that identify the criteria that members of the
 * group have in common. Tags are key-value pairs.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * For more information about Resource Groups, see the <a
 * href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ARG/latest/userguide/welcome.html">Resource Groups User Guide</a>.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Resource Groups uses a REST-compliant API that you can use to perform the following types of operations.
 * </p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>
 * <p>
 * Create, Read, Update, and Delete (CRUD) operations on resource groups and resource query entities
 * </p>
 * </li>
 * <li>
 * <p>
 * Applying, editing, and removing tags from resource groups
 * </p>
 * </li>
 * <li>
 * <p>
 * Resolving resource group member ARNs so they can be returned as search results
 * </p>
 * </li>
 * <li>
 * <p>
 * Getting data about resources that are members of a group
 * </p>
 * </li>
 * <li>
 * <p>
 * Searching Amazon Web Services resources based on a resource query
