API Gateway Circuit Breaking
What does a circuit breaker at the API gateway accomplish for an unhealthy upstream?
Options
- 1It retries every failed request repeatedly with backoff until the unhealthy upstream eventually succeeds again
- 2It stops sending requests to the failing upstream and fails fast, giving it room to recover and avoiding cascading load
- 3It encrypts all traffic sent to the upstream so that partial failures cannot leak sensitive request data
- 4It duplicates every request to a second upstream in parallel so that at least one of the copies will succeed
