Application-level health checks
For application security, health checks provide a basic way to ensure your application's
infrastructure availability. Microsoft offers Health Checks Middleware and libraries for .NET
Core. We recommend that you use these when you’re developing your application. You can use
health checks with monitoring services such as Amazon CloudWatch or container orchestrators such as
Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS). For more information about monitoring health checks by using CloudWatch, see the
Amazon Route 53 documentation. For more information about configuring health checks in
ASP.NET Core, see the Microsoft documentation
