success

An optional description of this resource.


failoverPolicy

complex

success

Policy for failovers.


disableConnectionDrainOnFailover

boolean

success

On failover or failback, this field indicates whether connection drain will be honored. Setting this to true has the following effect: connections to the old active pool are not drained. Connections to the new active pool use the timeout of 10 min (currently fixed). Setting to false has the following effect: both old and new connections will have a drain timeout of 10 min.

This can be set to true only if the protocol is TCP.

The default is false.


dropTrafficIfUnhealthy

fingerprint

string

success

Fingerprint of this resource. A hash of the contents stored in this object. This field is used in optimistic locking.


healthChecks

list / elements=string

id

integer

success

The unique identifier for the resource.


loadBalancingScheme

string

success

Indicates what kind of load balancing this regional backend service will be used for. A backend service created for one type of load balancing cannot be used with the other(s).


localityLbPolicy

string

success

The load balancing algorithm used within the scope of the locality.

The possible values are - ROUND_ROBIN - This is a simple policy in which each healthy backend is selected in round robin order.

LEAST_REQUEST - An O(1) algorithm which selects two random healthy hosts and picks the host which has fewer active requests.

RING_HASH - The ring/modulo hash load balancer implements consistent hashing to backends. The algorithm has the property that the addition/removal of a host from a set of N hosts only affects 1/N of the requests.

RANDOM - The load balancer selects a random healthy host.

ORIGINAL_DESTINATION - Backend host is selected based on the client connection metadata, i.e., connections are opened to the same address as the destination address of the incoming connection before the connection was redirected to the load balancer.

MAGLEV - used as a drop in replacement for the ring hash load balancer.

Maglev is not as stable as ring hash but has faster table lookup build times and host selection times. For more information about Maglev, refer to https://ai.google/research/pubs/pub44824 This field is applicable only when the `load_balancing_scheme` is set to INTERNAL_MANAGED and the `protocol` is set to HTTP, HTTPS, or HTTP2.

integer

success

This factor is used to determine the ejection threshold for success rate outlier ejection. The ejection threshold is the difference between the mean success rate, and the product of this factor and the standard deviation of the mean success rate: mean - (stdev * success_rate_stdev_factor). This factor is divided by a thousand to get a double. That is, if the desired factor is 1.9, the runtime value should be 1900. Defaults to 1900.
