Health Checks​

EdgeDB exposes HTTP endpoints to check for aliveness and readiness of your database instance. You can make GET requests to these endpoints to check the instance status.

Aliveness​

Check that your instance is alive by making a request to http://<hostname>:<port>/server/status/alive. If your instance is alive, it will respond with a 200 status code and "OK" as the payload. Otherwise, it will respond with a 50x or a network error.

Readiness​

Check that your instance is ready by making a request to http://<hostname>:<port>/server/status/ready. If your instance is ready, it will respond with a 200 status code and "OK" as the payload. Otherwise, it will respond with a 50x or a network error.
