Backoff Algorithms

Rebound uses a simple exponential backoff system:

finalDelay = initialDelay * (backoffFactor ^ currentAttempt)

Example:

@Rebound({
  delay: 1000,
  backoffFactor: 2,
})

Attempt	Delay
1	1000 ms
2	2000 ms
3	4000 ms

Exponential backoff is ideal for:

• Rate-limited APIs
• Backend overload protection
• Avoiding retry floods
