Frequently Asked Questions
What is the API circuit breaker pattern?
It's a design pattern that prevents system overload by stopping requests to failing services.
How does the circuit breaker pattern improve API reliability?
It allows systems to recover gracefully from failures by avoiding repeated requests.
When should I implement a circuit breaker?
Use it when integrating with unreliable third-party services or during high traffic.
