What problem does it solve?

Health-check endpoints provide a reliable mechanism to signal whether an application is alive, ready to handle traffic, and dependent services are healthy, enabling safer deployments and faster incident response.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Liveness and readiness probes to integrate with Kubernetes, load balancers, and orchestration platforms.
  • Dependency health checks that emit per-service status for proactive monitoring and alerting.
  • Quick integration patterns for both TypeScript/JavaScript and Python backends, with structured health status outputs.

Quick Start

To start, expose the health endpoints in your app (e.g., /health/live and /health/ready) and wire them into your deployment pipeline for automated health-based routing and scaling.
