I would like to ping time.google.com every 4.5 seconds in my application to see if i am able to reach the API. Is it fine ?

Can you tell us more about your problem? Why do you need to detect
unreachability so quickly?

I have issues in relying on the navigator.onLine to see whether I am connected to the network. I am in the process of building a web application to handle chats.
I need to be sure that the client is connected to the network for creating better experience.

When you say "ping", what do you mean, exactly?
An http get?
An NTP request?
An actual ICMP message?

An ICMP using node-net-ping
https://github.com/nospaceships/node-net-ping
It would be great, if this is permitted.

It seems that you want to know whether your chat server is reachable,
not whether Google Public NTP is reachable. Why not ping the server
directly?

It costs me bandwidth and the need to configure the application availability in multiple regions for faster network detection. I would like to use public open NTP URLs which are already configured to handle. Is it fine to hit the google public NTP?

time.google.com is intended for time service, not connectivity testing.
You might consider using Chrome's method:

Thank you very much for sharing that URL. If you don’t mind can you confirm whether it’s ok to hit the API mentioned in the post for every 4.5 seconds. Because I don’t see any SLA or documentation for this.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.

There is no SLA, sorry. Connectivity testing is not a service we offer.
