have time to complete, but the new ones are being refused.
Healthy
The instance is reachable i.e. a connection to the application health
checking endpoint can be established, and conforms to the requirements

Timeout
The instance is unreachable i.e. a connection to the application health
checking endpoint cannot be established, or the server does not respond
within the specified timeout.
Unhealthy
The instance is reachable, but does not conform to the requirements
defined by the health check.
