Question/Discussion: Retry operations (general API availability)
SUMMARY
Hi, I am using ansible for a wide variety of operations in azure. During recent cases MSFT said that they do not guarantee availability of the API and I should automatically retry failed operations. So in general I could do that with ansible logic, but my question is more at which layer does it make the most sense to do a retry logic? On my tasks -- on the ansible module level -- on the azure-sdk-for-python level?
An example of a concrete problem I currently have would be with quering backup resources, it seems the Azure Front Door -> Recovery Vault Backend connection has problems every couple thousand requests
It produces actual html code error responses like this:
Error in fetching recovery point ("<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC '-//W3C//DTD XHTML
