BackendService class final

Represents a Backend Service resource.

A backend service defines how Google Cloud load balancers distribute traffic. The backend service configuration contains a set of values, such as the protocol used to connect to backends, various distribution and session settings, health checks, and timeouts. These settings provide fine-grained control over how your load balancer behaves. Most of the settings have default values that allow for easy configuration if you need to get started quickly.

Backend services in Google Compute Engine can be either regionally or globally scoped.

• Global
• Regional

Requires at least one backend instance group to be defined as a backup (failover) backend. For load balancers that have configurable failover: Internal passthrough Network Load Balancers and external passthrough Network Load Balancers. failoverPolicy cannot be specified with haPolicy.failoverPolicy cannot be used by global external Passthrough Network Load Balancers.

final

fingerprint → String?

Fingerprint of this resource. A hash of the contents stored in this object. This field is used in optimistic locking. This field will be ignored when inserting a BackendService. An up-to-date fingerprint must be provided in order to update the BackendService, otherwise the request will fail with error 412 conditionNotMet.

final

final

hashCode → int

The hash code for this object.

no setter, inherited

healthChecks → List<String>

The list of URLs to the healthChecks, httpHealthChecks (legacy), or httpsHealthChecks (legacy) resource for health checking this backend service. Not all backend services support legacy health checks. See Load balancer guide. Currently, at most one health check can be specified for each backend service. Backend services with instance group or zonal NEG backends must have a health check unless haPolicy is specified. Backend services with internet or serverless NEG backends must not have a health check.
