Check the startup status of your microservices with MicroProfile 4.1 in Open Liberty 21.0.0.9

Screenshot of example Startup Check code

For MicroProfile 4.1 applications that require additional startup time on their first initialization, you can define startup probes which are used to check the startup status of the application before the Liveness probe takes over. MicroProfile Health 3.1 introduces a new health check called Startup. You can create your own health check procedures to verify that your microservices have fully initialized using the @Startup annotation. And you can configure the Kubernetes Startup probe with the REST endpoint /health/started.

OpenTelemetry is a collection of APIs, SDKs, tools you can use to instrument, generate, capture and export telemetry data. An example of telemetry data are metrics and logs which can then be analyzed to evaluate your application’s performance and behaviour.
