GCP Compute Health Check
A GCP Compute Health Check is a Google Cloud resource that periodically probes virtual machine instances or endpoints to decide whether they are fit to receive production traffic. The check runs from the Google-managed control plane using protocols such as TCP, SSL, HTTP(S), HTTP/2 or gRPC, and compares the response to thresholds you configure (e.g. response code, timeout, healthy/unhealthy counts). Backend services, target pools and managed instance groups use the resulting health status to route requests only to healthy instances and to trigger autoscaling or fail-over behaviour. Health checks come in global and regional flavours, aligning with global and regional load balancers respectively.
