Eval, Testing & Debugging
A production integration occasionally gets a transient 529 (overloaded) response from the API. What's the appropriate recovery pattern?
Show answer and explanation
Answer: B — Retry with backoff before treating it as a hard failure
A transient overload error is the textbook case for retry-with-backoff — treating it as an immediate hard failure or an unrecoverable outage overreacts to something that's expected to resolve on its own shortly.
