QuestionQ46

Fault Tolerance Techniques

A microservice-based application encounters transient faults because of network instability.

What is the best practice for addressing these transient faults?

Explanation

Retry logic with exponential backoff is a resilience pattern for transient network failures. It retries an operation after progressively longer delays, allowing a temporarily unavailable network or downstream service time to recover while avoiding an immediate burst of repeated requests.
