I don't quite get option 1 cached response. If there is a cache in front of MS3, isn't it then the normal happy case? whether MS3 is up or down, we would hit the cache first and only hits MS3 if there is a cache miss. Further the cache typically only has a subset number of responses thus you won't be able to guarantee a successful call by going to the cache.
Can anyone explain why the cached response is a valid benefit of CB ? My key doubt is if the cached response was appropriate then why was the call made in the first place
Thanks for the good video. I have question. In case of service is not available how do we handle incoming request ? Do we keep any pending action timer for which we will be buffering request and later will process them or system will discard them directly by providing configured error response.
This is a poor explanation of circuit breaker pattern. The problem it solves is not the 5 times retry of service call to MS3. This same retry policy is also in effect on the other services in the chain, so when MS3 fails, MS2 will return an error and MS1 will retry calling MS2 for 5 times, and each call to MS2 will retry the call to MS3 5 times. Overall, MS3 will be called 25 times, MS2 will be called 5 times, so the failure of MS3 will cause a cascading exponential increase of calls, which will slow down the system. Circuit breaker prevents this from happening. If the retry policy is N times, and there are M services making chained calls, a faulting service at the end of the chain causes number of calls in the order of N to the power of M, this is for each call on the first service in the chain, which, when repeated, is enough to take the whole system down. Circuit breaker prevents these cascading failed calls from taking down the system.
Excellent teaching, each topic is crystal clear
got an offer from linkedin today, thank you very much for great content sir
Love it how well you are able to explain complex topics.
Thanks for educating a millions of engineers like us. Salute to you sir ...
Thanks a lot! Nice explanations!
Glad to see your session again
I want to give a thumbs up to every of your videos!
Awesome explaination
Thank you! All clear and easy to understand!
Saviour 😎🔥
thanks for the info
finally i understand
Thank you
Thanks for the video.Can I request you to show all the concepts you explain through code snippet or share thecode that has this technique implemented.

we can think it as a reverse proxy ..right?
I like your videos, very well structured and informative.
To make it even better, please improve the audio quality.
What happens if ms2 fails and ms1 & ms3 are running state. Will ms1 directly make calls to ms3 using CB?
So circuit breakers are mostly used in synchronous calls only?
The error from the service 3 is handled by using try catch block ,then why we are using circuit breaker?
eagerly waiting for your reply bro
The point of the circuit breaker is to avoid making another request to service 3 if it has returned an error recently to let it recover.

Thank you bro!
option 2 isn't a circuit breaker pattern. This is smart load balancing if you have stand by services.
cache will be very small, most of the requests will fail only.
I think we don't need a circuit breaker, these things can be implemented using a reverse proxy or just in the service itself.
the mechanism is called circuit breaking, can be implemented in the service or on a reverse proxy

Thanks for the video! But dude, you talk too much it took almost 5 minutes to explain the problem...
I thought he explained it really well. Faster would have been too fast.
Thanks Naren! Please keep these videos coming. We really appreciate it.
