Uptime monitoring for private services

Are there any best practices or patterns to monitor private services running on Render? My private service is accessible to other services only so I cannot monitor it from some external uptime monitor.

Hey there,

Assuming you have a public-facing service on us, what about exposing a path on that that you monitor. In there, check your dependencies, DB, Redis (if you use it), and your backend service are all responding as expected - and return a non-response if any are bad.
