A <DocsLink href="/reference/typescript-api/health-check/health-check-strategy#healthcheckstrategy">HealthCheckStrategy</DocsLink> used to check the health of the database. This health
check is included by default, but can be customized by explicitly adding it to the
`systemOptions.healthChecks` array:

*Example*

```ts
import { TypeORMHealthCheckStrategy } from '@vendure/core';

export const config = {
  // ...
  systemOptions: {
    healthChecks:[
        // The default key is "database" and the default timeout is 1000ms
        // Sometimes this is too short and leads to false negatives in the
        // /health endpoint.
        new TypeORMHealthCheckStrategy({ key: 'postgres-db', timeout: 5000 }),
    ]
  }
}
```

```ts title="Signature"
class TypeORMHealthCheckStrategy implements HealthCheckStrategy {
    constructor(options?: TypeORMHealthCheckOptions)
    init(injector: Injector) => ;
    getHealthIndicator() => HealthIndicatorFunction;
}
```
