- matt_oriordan 5y agoAwesome article. The author has absolutely nailed the issues one faces with distributed systems under stress.
- somada141 5y agoExcellent writeup indeed.

Very interesting to see other solutions to this problem. [0]: https://martinfowler.com/bliki/CircuitBreaker.html https://martinfowler.com/bliki/CircuitBreaker.html
