Modular Global HTTP Load Balancer for GCE using forwarding rules.

Global HTTP Load Balancer Terraform Module

Modular Global HTTP Load Balancer for GCE using forwarding rules.

If you would like to allow for backend groups to be managed outside Terraform, such as via GKE services, see the dynamic backends submodule.

Load Balancer Types

• TCP load balancer
• HTTP/S load balancer
• Internal load balancer

Compatibility

This module is meant for use with Terraform 0.12. If you haven't upgraded and need a Terraform 0.11.x-compatible version of this module, the last released version intended for Terraform 0.11.x is 1.0.10.
