Add existing ExponentialBackOff to common project

Open liran2000 opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Exponential BackOff is a generic use for retry mechanism with backoff and jitter, and commonly used and needed in several applications for multiple different purposes, like failure handling.

Currently, there is an existing implementation for it at com.google.api.client.util.ExponentialBackOff.

Request here is to move, copy or add BackOff interface with the ExponentialBackOff implementation to Guava common project, as many projects do not need http-client dependency, and still want to use Exponential BackOff for multiple purposes which are not related to http client.

http-client depends on Guava anyway.
