Full jitter retry rationale
Why is full jitter applied to exponential backoff retries?
Options
- 1To make each retry happen faster than the last, so recovery time shrinks with each attempt
- 2To guarantee retries never exceed a single attempt, so jitter caps the load a client sends
- 3To spread retries across clients and prevent synchronized thundering-herd spikes
- 4To increase total request volume during an outage, warming the service more quickly
