Health-Check (EN)

A Health-Check is a mechanism to check the status and availability of an application in a Kubernetes cluster. It enables Kubernetes to monitor your application's status and automatically initiate restarts or other corrective measures in case of failures. Health-Checks can be configured as Liveness-Checks to determine whether a container should be running, or as Readiness-Checks to determine whether a container can receive requests. By implementing Health-Checks, you can ensure the availability and reliability of your applications in the cluster.
