[hibernate-dev] Health check status API

It was suggested to me that Hibernate ORM could help people developing microservices on Kubernetes / Openshift by making "health checks" easier. In short, how to expose to some management API that we're being able to connect to the database and do our usual things. This could be done by connection pools as well but I suspect there could be benefits in exposing this information in a unified way at an higher level API; also on top of using ad-hoc specific connection APIs, or Dialect specific instructions, I guess we could monitor timeout exceptions, etc.. happening on the application sessions. Wrote some notes on: - https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-12655 Probably best to explore this in ORM first, but then Search and OGM could expose/implement it too for their respective services? Or maybe people would prefer to just run a query? Thanks, Sanne
