Managing Health and Liveness Endpoints

TIBCO OPE supports the following health and liveness endpoints to check the overall health of the system and generate the response accordingly:

The HTTP response code numbers are the same for both the endpoints:

  • On Success - 200 (OK)
  • On Failure - 503 (Service unavailability)
Note: While starting up an Offer and Price Engine server, Offer and Price Engine either reads the model cache generated generated by the model load engine from object storage. This impacts startup time drastically, therefore there is no ideal periodSeconds wait time before liveness probe can be made. Therefore it is a good practice not to set liveness probe when deploying TIBCO OPE on Kubernetes or OpenShift.
