Provides basic connectivity testing with minimal overhead and immediate response. Returns simple acknowledgment message for network connectivity validation and basic service availability testing. Designed for lightweight monitoring probes, load balancer health checks, and automated connectivity verification.
This endpoint provides the simplest possible health check for basic connectivity and service availability testing. Returns a fixed "pong" response without executing any health checks or dependency validations. Use this endpoint for load balancer probes, network connectivity testing, and basic service availability monitoring. The response is immediate and does not validate application dependencies or business logic functionality. Ideal for high-frequency monitoring scenarios where minimal resource consumption is required. Should not be used as a substitute for comprehensive health checks or dependency validation. Essential for automated monitoring systems that need fast, lightweight connectivity verification.
