Health Checks and Liveness
Health checks tell load balancers and orchestrators whether a service is healthy. They are essential for zero-downtime deployments and automatic recovery.
The resources below cover HTTP health endpoints, readiness vs liveness, dependencies, and Kubernetes probes. Each guide shows how to design probes that reflect real service health.
Every resource includes clear explanations, copy-paste code, and practical warnings. Use them to make informed decisions, avoid production pitfalls, and speed up your delivery. If you are just getting started, read the beginner-friendly articles first; if you are experienced, jump straight to the advanced patterns and architecture guides. New resources are added regularly, so bookmark this page and check back for the latest patterns.
