Health Check Best Practices

Health Check Best Practices

This is assumed to be in a webapp/SaaS context where there is plenty of http/https traffic already.

  • Do as little work in your health check as possible. It is like a CPU interrupt in that way.

  • Respond with an http status of 200 if all is well. Respond with 500 if there is a failure.

  • Optionally also include JSON in your response.
