+Google Service Management manages a set of *services*. Service
+Management allows *service producers* to
+publish their services on Google Cloud Platform so that they can be discovered
+and used by *service consumers*. It also handles the tasks of tracking
+service lifecycle and programming various backend systems -- such as
+[Stackdriver Logging](https://cloud.google.com/stackdriver),
+[Stackdriver Monitoring](https://cloud.google.com/stackdriver) -- to support
+the managed services.
+
+If you are a service producer, you can use the Google Service Management API
+and [Google Cloud SDK (gcloud)](/sdk) to publish and manage your services.
+Each managed service has a service configuration which declares various aspects
+of the service such as its API surface, along with parameters to configure the
+supporting backend
+systems, such as logging and monitoring. If you build your service using
+[Google Cloud Endpoints](https://cloud.google.com/endpoints/), the service
+configuration will be handled automatically.
+
+If you are a service consumer and want to use a managed service, you can use the
+Google Service Management API or [Google Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com)
+to activate the
+service for your [Google developer project](https://developers.google.com/console/help/new/),
+then start using its APIs and functions.
+
+## Managed services
+
+REST URL: `https://servicemanagement.googleapis.com/v1/services/{service-name}` <br />
+REST schema is defined [here](/service-management/reference/rest/v1/services).
+
+A managed service refers to a network service managed by
+Service Management. Each managed service has a unique name, such as
+`example.googleapis.com`, which must be a valid fully-qualified DNS name, as per
+RFC 1035.
+
+A managed service typically provides some REST APIs and/or other
+functions to their service consumers, such as mobile apps or cloud services.
+
+Service producers can use methods, such as
+[services.create](/service-management/reference/rest/v1/services/create),
+[services.delete](/service-management/reference/rest/v1/services/delete),
+[services.undelete](/service-management/reference/rest/v1/services/undelete),
+to manipulate their managed services.
+
+## Service producers
+
+A service producer is the Google developer project responsible for publishing
+and maintaining a managed service. Each managed service is owned by exactly one
+service producer.
+
+## Service consumers
+
+A service consumer is a Google developer project that has enabled and can
+invoke APIs on a managed service. A managed service can have many service
+consumers.
+
+## Service configuration
+
+REST URL: `https://servicemanagement.googleapis.com/v1/services/{service-name}/configs/{config_id}` <br />
+REST schema is defined [here](/service-management/reference/rest/v1/services.configs).
+
+Each managed service is described by a service configuration which covers a wide
+range of features, including its name, title, RPC API definitions,
+REST API definitions, documentation, authentication, and more.
+
+To change the configuration of a managed service, the service producer needs to
+publish an updated service configuration to Service Management.
+Service Management keeps a history of published
+service configurations, making it possible to easily retrace how a service's
+configuration evolved over time. Service configurations can be published using
+the
+[services.configs.create](/service-management/reference/rest/v1/services.configs/create)
+or [services.configs.submit](/service-management/reference/rest/v1/services.configs/submit)
+methods.
+
+Alternatively, `services.configs.submit` allows publishing an
+[OpenAPI](https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification) specification, formerly
+known as the Swagger Specification, which is automatically converted to a
+corresponding service configuration.
+
+## Service rollout
+
+REST URL: `https://servicemanagement.googleapis.com/v1/services/{service-name}/rollouts/{rollout-id}` <br />
+REST schema is defined [here](/service-management/reference/rest/v1/services.rollouts).
+
+A `Rollout` defines how Google Service Management should deploy service
+configurations to backend systems and how the configurations take effect at
+runtime. It lets service producers specify multiple service configuration
+versions to be deployed together, and a strategy that indicates how they
+should be used.
+
+Updating a managed service's configuration can be dangerous, as a configuration
+error can lead to a service outage. To mitigate risks, Service Management
+supports gradual rollout of service configuration changes. This feature gives
+service producers time to identity potential issues and rollback service
+configuration changes in case of errors, thus minimizing the customer
+impact of bad configurations. For example, you could specify that 5% of traffic
+uses configuration 1, while the remaining 95% uses configuration 2.
+
+Service Management keeps a history of rollouts so that service
+producers can undo to previous configuration versions. You can rollback a configuration
+by initiating a new `Rollout` that clones a previously submitted
+rollout record. \ No newline at end of file
