Exponential backoff means the wait time before each retry grows by a fixed multiplier; for example, with an initial delay of 1 second and a backoff factor of 2, the wait sequence is 1s, 2s, 4s, 8s.

UnverifiedExponential backoff means the retry interval grows exponentially (e.g., 1s, 2s, 4s, 8s...), with a maximum retry count and a cap on the interval.80% similarUnverifiedThe bounded retry strategy uses exponential backoff within a bounded number of attempts (such as 1 second, 2 seconds, 4 seconds, 8 seconds...), ensuring the request eventually returns a definite result rather than hanging indefinitely; the infinite wait mode sets no cap on the number of attempts, trading uncertainty for a higher eventual success rate.76% similarVerifiedThe exponential backoff algorithm adopts a retry strategy of progressively increasing wait times to avoid exacerbating load during system failures, and requires setting a maximum number of retries to prevent infinite loops.72% similarVerifiedExponential backoff is a classic fault-tolerance strategy in distributed systems, where clients wait at exponentially increasing intervals (e.g., 1 second, 2 seconds, 4 seconds, 8 seconds) upon request failure, with random jitter added to avoid the thundering herd effect.72% similar
