    BackendService allows you to retrieve information about backend servers. Backend servers are long running addressable servers that can be used for applications that need to keep persistent state in ram between requests.

    This API is deprecated and has been replaced by ModulesService. Please update your code as soon as possible. See the modules documentation for more information: https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/java/modules/converting

    This API allows you to retrieve information about the backend handling the current request. It also allows you to to get the address of a specific backend instance in such a way that a local server is used during development and a production server is used in production.
