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.
