Traefik continuously monitors the health of its backend services (Docker containers) through health checks (typically HTTP probes). When a container fails a health check, Traefik automatically removes it from the routing configuration, preventing traffic from being routed to the unhealthy container. This ensures that only healthy containers receive requests.
