+description: |-
+  Creates a Backend Service resource for Google Compute Engine.
+---
+
+# google\_compute\_backend\_service
+
+
+
+
+## Example Usage
+
+```
+resource "google_compute_backend_service" "foobar" {
+    name = "blablah"
+    health_checks = ["${google_compute_http_health_check.default.self_link}"]
+}
+
+resource "google_compute_http_health_check" "default" {
+    name = "test"
+    request_path = "/"
+    check_interval_sec = 1
+    timeout_sec = 1
+}
+```
+
+## Argument Reference
+
+The following arguments are supported:
+
+* `name` - (Required) The name of the backend service.
+* `health_checks` - (Required) Specifies a list of HTTP health check objects
+    for checking the health of the backend service.
+* `description` - (Optional) The textual description for the backend service.
+* `backends` - (Optional) The list of backends that serve this BackendService. See *Backend* below.
+* `port_name` - (Optional) The name of a service that has been added to
+	an instance group in this backend. See [related docs](https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instance-groups/#specifying_service_endpoints)
+    for details. Defaults to http.
+* `protocol` - (Optional) The protocol for incoming requests. Defaults to `HTTP`.
+* `timeout_sec` - (Optional) The number of secs to wait for a backend to respond
+	to a request before considering the request failed. Defaults to `30`.
+
+**Backend** supports the following attributes:
+
+* `group` - (Required) The name or URI of a Compute Engine instance group that can receive traffic.
+* `balancing_mode` - (Optional) Defines the strategy for balancing load. Defaults to `UTILIZATION`
+* `capacity_scaler` - (Optional) A float in the range [0, 1.0] that scales the maximum parameters for the group (e.g., max rate). A value of 0.0 will cause no requests to be sent to the group (i.e., it adds the group in a drained state). The default is 1.0.
+* `description` - (Optional) Textual description for the backend.
+* `max_rate` - (Optional) Maximum requests per second (RPS) that the group can handle.
+* `max_rate_per_instance` - (Optional) The maximum per-instance requests per second (RPS).
+* `max_utilization` - (Optional) The target CPU utilization for the group as a float in the range [0.0, 1.0]. This flag can only be provided when the balancing mode is `UTILIZATION`. Defaults to `0.8`.
+
+## Attributes Reference
+
+The following attributes are exported:
+
+* `name` - The name of the resource.
+* `backend_service` - The IP backend_service that was allocated.
+* `self_link` - The URI of the created resource.
