Visually Compare Retry Algorithms
A tool to compare retry strategies. It includes configuration for linear, exponential backoff, and capped exponential retries.
A retry algorithm determines how long to wait between repeated attempts to perform an action that has failed. Different strategies offer various trade-offs between aggressive retries and avoiding system overload. Linear Retry: Increases wait time by a fixed amount each retry Exponential Backoff: Doubles (or multiplies) wait time each retry Capped Exponential: Like exponential but with a maximum delay
