How can I implement circuit breakers in my code?

Implementing circuit breakers helps manage failures in distributed systems. Are you using a specific programming language?

I'm using Java. Can you provide a code example?

Sure! You can use libraries like Resilience4j. Here's a simple example:

CircuitBreaker circuitBreaker = CircuitBreaker.ofDefaults("myCircuitBreaker");

Supplier<String> decoratedSupplier = CircuitBreaker.decorateSupplier(circuitBreaker, () -> {
    // Your code that might fail
});

String result = Try.ofSupplier(decoratedSupplier)
    .recover(throwable -> "Fallback response").get();

What are the best practices for using circuit breakers?

Best practices include setting appropriate timeout durations, monitoring circuit states, and implementing fallback mechanisms.
