Avast homework

This is a simple flask app with 3 endpoints:

• /ping -> returns "Alive" and current time
• /v1/now -> returns json, e.g. {'now": }
• /v1/VIP/ -> returns either
  • after more than 5 sec: TIMEOUT
  • if there is a db error: ERROR
  • in normal operation a json, e.g. {"gpsCoords":{"lat":77.77449,"long":106.75767},"source":"vip-db"}

A log file is generated in the current directory. The log will contain a periodic heartbeat for each worker and timeout/error messages.
