Returns a success response if the API is up and running correctly.

Health Check Overview

The Health Check endpoint provides a simple way to verify that the API is up and running.
It is designed to be used by monitoring tools and load balancers to check service availability.

Business significance

This endpoint allows automated monitoring systems to verify that the API is functioning
correctly and can respond to requests. It's useful for uptime monitoring, automated
health checks in container orchestration, and status dashboards.

Technical note

The health check intentionally bypasses most middleware and business logic to provide
a lightweight response that confirms basic system operation.
