Design Microservices Architecture with Patterns and Principles - Microservices Health Checks: Liveness, Readiness, and P

The video tutorial discusses the importance of health checks in microservices, which help monitor the health and performance of individual components in a system. It explains the three types of health checks: wireless, readiness, and performance checks. Wireless checks ensure a microservice is running, readiness checks confirm it can handle requests, and performance checks assess its efficiency. The tutorial emphasizes the need for quick issue identification and resolution to maintain system reliability and suggests using health events for informed decision-making and creating self-healing services.
