Hi, Having a product specific health check endpoint would help deployments in platforms like Kubernetes, DockerSwarm, Mesos etc. in which we can configure a health check. The deployment platform will call to this endpoint to query the status of the deployed service and re-spin the instances if they are not healthy for a given period of time.
It is basically another REST API service when queried will return HTTP status code in the range of 200-300 if the internal components are operating as expected. For eg. in case of API-Gateway this can be an embedded dummy API so that we can make sure Synapse transport is up and running. In case of Identity-Server we can check the connection to userstores/DBs and expose the status as a REST API.
