Kubernetes Monitoring Best Practices: Health Checks Using Probes

Kubernetes health checks using probes (readiness, liveness, and startup) are essential for ensuring application reliability and high availability. Readiness probes determine if a pod is ready to serve traffic, while liveness probes check if the application is running correctly. Probes can be configured via HTTP, TCP, or command-based methods, with options like initialDelaySeconds and periodSeconds for fine-tuning. Implementing these probes is a key Kubernetes monitoring best practice, enabling automated issue detection, fault tolerance, and improved user experiences.
