If your container shows Status: unhealthy, Docker's health check is failing. The container is still running, but something inside, usually your app, isn’t responding as expected.

Ask banking leaders if their systems are healthy, and most respond confidently: “Yes, everything’s up.” But track a transaction closely, and reality shifts. A high-value payment retries repeatedly before settling. A KYC process silently times out, losing a verified customer. Compliance checks complete using stale data. No visible outages.
