go-resilience

What problem does it solve?

Go-based microservices frequently suffer instability when calling external systems, leading to timeouts and cascading failures. This skill provides a cohesive set of resilience patterns to stabilize calls, degrade gracefully, and improve overall reliability.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Circuit breaker to stop calls to failing dependencies and recover gracefully.
• Retry with exponential backoff and jitter to handle transient faults.
• Per-call timeouts and graceful degradation for responsive services.
• Failure injection and testing support to validate resilience under load.

Quick Start

Integrate go-resilience in your service by wrapping outbound calls with timeout, retry, and circuit-breaker logic.
