The teams are grouped as follows:
Best player (largest db) - group 1
Second best (second largest db) - group 2
Third best (third largest db) – group 3
Fourth best (fourth largest db) – group 4
Fifth best (fifth largest db) – group 5
Sixth best (sixth largest db) group 6
Seventh best (seventh largest db) group 1
Etc, etc.
Two of the groups will end up with seven players (seven databases). The seventh players will be low ranking players (small databases) and may not have a huge impact on the team.
Did you think of a scenario when these Groups overlap with one another ? In such case you will have more than the required number of parallel backups. How do you overcome this ?
