+Healthcheck and Monitoring
+==========================
+
+Healthcheck
+-----------
+Inside HV-VES docker container runs a small HTTP service for healthcheck. Port for healthchecks can be configured
+at deployment using ``--health-check-api-port`` command line option or via `VESHV_HEALTHCHECK_API_PORT` environment variable (for details see :ref:`deployment`).
+
+This service exposes endpoint **GET /health/ready** which returns a **HTTP 200 OK** when HV-VES is healthy
+and ready for connections. Otherwise it returns a **HTTP 503 Service Unavailable** message with a short reason of unhealthiness.
+
+
+Monitoring
+----------
+HV-VES collector allows to collect metrics data at runtime. To serve this purpose HV-VES application exposes an endpoint **GET /monitoring/prometheus** 
+which returns a **HTTP 200 OK** message with a specific data in its body. Returned data is in a format readable by Prometheus service.
+Prometheus endpoint shares a port with healthchecks.
