This seems like it answers its own question. In Flask or Django you add a route that does some health checks. I don’t understand what this is asking.<p>Ask HN shouldn’t link out

Note that you probably should not add database checking in a health endpoint because it can cause a cascading failure where all your services then restart when the issue is just the database service.
