  # Built-in Health Check Endpoint
  #
  # \Rails also comes with a built-in health check endpoint that is reachable at
  # the +/up+ path. This endpoint will return a 200 status code if the app has
  # booted with no exceptions, and a 500 status code otherwise.
  #
  # In production, many applications are required to report their status upstream,
  # whether it's to an uptime monitor that will page an engineer when things go
  # wrong, or a load balancer or Kubernetes controller used to determine a pod's
  # health. This health check is designed to be a one-size fits all that will work
  # in many situations.
  #
  # While any newly generated \Rails applications will have the health check at
  # +/up+, you can configure the path to be anything you'd like in your
  # <tt>"config/routes.rb"</tt>:
  #
  #   Rails.application.routes.draw do
  #     get "healthz" => "rails/health#show", as: :rails_health_check
  #   end
  #
  # The health check will now be accessible via the +/healthz+ path.
  #
  # NOTE: This endpoint does not reflect the status of all of your application's
  # dependencies, such as the database or Redis cluster. Replace
  # <tt>"rails/health#show"</tt> with your own controller action if you have
  # application specific needs.
  #
  # Think carefully about what you want to check as it can lead to situations
  # where your application is being restarted due to a third-party service going
  # bad. Ideally, you should design your application to handle those outages
  # gracefully.
