AWS will send a request to a specific path and make sure it receives a
status 200 response. If the response status is not 200, it will consider
that instance unhealthy and will not route traffic to that instance. The
path can be anything that can be used as a signal that the application is
running
We would find this valuable for the reason Jonas outlined. Health checks
from AWS are sent without a host header, which causes the request to fail
the host check. By whitelisting the health check path, it would simplify
deployments to AWS and possibly others. Here's the workaround we use in
product
Sorry all, disregard my previous email, I misread one thing and
