Inputs on developing a HealthCheck service

Hi,

We need to develop a HealthCheck service for an existing server
application.

Would help if we could get some inputs on developing one.

Other than responding to a check-if-alive request is there anything
else that a HealthCheck service has to do?

Any pointers would help.

Thanks and Regards,
M Shetty

Monitor disk space and activity, memory usage, CPU load, temperatures.
Check functionality of critical application(s) on that server.
