[FEATURE REQ] Provide a health indicator for Service Bus Spring starter

[saragluna]

Context

In Spring Cloud Azure 4.0, we added a starter for Azure Service Bus. Each client should have one health indicator for it, and it's the same for the Service Bus clients.

Goal

With this health indicator, users shall be able to check the health status of Service Bus clients.

[saragluna]

Reopen it for the Service Bus health indicator hasn't been added for auto-configuration.

#30507

[AndreasPetersen]

I'm sorry, I'm a bit confused with all these issues being linked throughout.

Is it possible to get health indicators through the service bus clients, or is this still in the backlog?

[saragluna]

Sorry @AndreasPetersen, it's still in the backlog. We will look into the tracing implementation in #30507 to see whether it can provide the health info, but this feature request is a lower priority now.

[AndreasPetersen]

I see that #30507 is closed, being marked as a duplicate of #26269, which is also closed as completed. Where does that leave this issue?

[saragluna]

The tracer will collect information whenever sending or receiving messages, but what if an application with a sender or receiver but has no messages flowing, should we consider the application is healthy? So for a health indicator we should not depend on the messages flowing on the connection, metrics like active connection might be more suitable in this case.

[AndreasPetersen]

Would it be possible to send a ping message to check the health of the connection? The lack of a health indicator is a huge issue for us given #34588 .

Hi @AndreasPetersen , the service bus sdk client doesn't expose any interfaces for us to check the status of it, so it's still blocked.

Thank you for the reply @Netyyyy . Is there an issue on exposing any such interfaces?

Sorry, I have no idea about that. Maybe @anuchandy could help you.
