 # Terraform service networking example
 This example creates service networking with a global address.

+resource "google_compute_network" "peering_network" {
+  name                    = "private-network"
+  auto_create_subnetworks = "false"

+  global_addresses = [{ name : "global-address" }]
+  service          = "servicenetworking.googleapis.com"
+}
+```
+
+In the above terraform, a service networking connection is created. It enables managed services (cloud sql,memorystore) on internal IP addresses (VPC) to service consumers (cloud-run). Service consumers use private services access to privately connect to the service.

 # Terraform Google service networking
 
-This module creates global network address and a service networking
+This module creates global network address and a service networking. The google_service_networking_connection terraform resource allows to establish a private connection between a Google Cloud Platform (GCP) VPC network and a supported Google service, such as Cloud SQL, BigQuery, or a third-party service.
