SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Ecotone resiliency features provide robust handling of message processing failures with configurable retries, error channels, dead-letter queues, and the outbox pattern to guarantee delivery and structured failure handling.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Retry strategies with configurable backoffs (fixed, exponential, with max delay)
  • Error handling via ErrorHandlerConfiguration with optional dead-letter channel
  • FinalFailureStrategy to define behavior when retries are exhausted
  • Outbox pattern using a DBAL-backed channel for atomic storage
  • Enterprise options like InstantRetry and per-endpoint error routing

Quick Start

Set up a resiliency configuration that wires a retry policy, an error channel, and an optional dead-letter channel, then enable the outbox pattern for guaranteed delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions about ecotone-resiliency

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I configure retry strategies for message processing in Ecotone?▼

You configure retry strategies in Ecotone using RetryTemplateBuilder to define fixed, exponential, or max delay backoffs for message-driven workloads experiencing transient failures.

What is the outbox pattern and how does it guarantee message delivery?▼

The outbox pattern guarantees delivery by using DbalBackedMessageChannelBuilder for atomic storage, ensuring messages are safely persisted within a database transaction before processing.

How do I handle dead-letter routing when retries are exhausted?▼

Dead-letter routing is handled by configuring ErrorHandlerConfiguration with a dead-letter channel. FinalFailureStrategy defines the exact behavior when retries are exhausted, routing failed messages to the dead-letter queue.

Can I set up per-endpoint error routing and instant retries in Ecotone?▼

Yes, Ecotone supports enterprise options like InstantRetry for immediate retry attempts and per-endpoint error routing to direct failures to specific error channels based on the message source.

What is the best way to structure failure handling for asynchronous messaging?▼

The best way to structure failure handling is wiring a retry policy with RetryTemplateBuilder, an error channel via ErrorHandlerConfiguration, and a dead-letter queue for guaranteed delivery and structured failure management.
