📝 Abstract
Distributed systems support many critical business workflows, but service health is often judged through component dashboards rather than through end-to-end user outcomes. This article presents service health engineering as a practical reliability discipline that connects telemetry, workflow completion, dependency behavior, operational readiness, and recovery validation. Using a document approval workflow as a running example, it describes how service promises, service-level indicators and objectives, watchdogs, incident measures, resiliency testing, and weekly service-health reviews can reveal silent failures and stranded asynchronous work. It also presents a human-reviewed, AI-assisted reporting architecture for assembling service-health evidence without making AI an autonomous decision-maker. The approach brings established reliability practices together around whether user journeys complete as promised.
