Retry backoff with jitter
Why add random jitter to exponential backoff delays?
Options
- 1To make application logs deterministic, so retry timestamps line up across clients
- 2To reduce code complexity by centralizing retry scheduling, so no caller needs its own backoff loop
- 3To spread retries over time and avoid synchronized retry storms from many clients
- 4To guarantee exactly-once delivery, so a retried request is deduplicated and never repeats
