SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The Startup Dependency Graph provides a deterministic, fail-fast aware bootstrap for a server, coordinating dependency initialization, health checks, and graceful shutdown to prevent race conditions during startup.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Parallel dependency initialization with configurable timeouts.
  • Fail-fast mode to abort startup on critical failure.
  • Built-in health checks and startup summary for observability.
  • Graceful shutdown of dependencies on server stop.
  • Easy extension to add new dependencies and monitoring integrations.

Quick Start

Start the server in development mode and observe the deterministic startup sequence and health checks.

FAQPage Schema
How do I prevent race conditions during server startup with parallel dependency initialization?

Graceful shutdown coordinates dependency termination when the server stops, ensuring databases, queues, and AI providers close cleanly without data loss or hanging connections.

What is fail-fast mode for backend service bootstrap and when should I use it?

The StartupManager enforces health checks by validating each dependency against built-in criteria during initialization, aborting startup if critical services fail their health validation.

Can I configure per-dependency timeouts for database and queue health checks?

Built-in health endpoints expose the startup summary and dependency health validation results, allowing external monitoring tools to verify server readiness and track dependency status.

How do I add new dependencies to a server startup dependency graph?

Optional fail-fast mode immediately aborts the entire bootstrap process upon detecting a critical dependency failure, preventing race conditions and ensuring only fully operational servers start.
