Health checks in a cloud-native system have a different focus from traditional health checks. Traditional health checks operate at the instance level to identify when a specific instance in a cluster needs to be replaced. Cloud-native systems, however, use fully managed, value-added cloud services, so there are no instances to manage. These serverless capabilities provide high availability across the availability zones within a specific region. As a result, cloud-native systems can focus on providing high availability across regions. This recipe demonstrates how to assert the health of the value-added cloud services that are used within a given region.
