Depending on your expected traffic patterns and volume, no responses to report for an extended period of time is its own data point.

In the old days when telemetry was exotic this was the answer.

No 2XX-499 results means the server is borked.

If you wanted to be really fancy you could send heartbeat requests when no live traffic had hit that node for n milliseconds.

I still think the latter is the right answer. Why inflate traffic when you are horizontally scaling? That’s a lot of health checks per second.
