--------------------------------
Component/s: Storage
> Implement retry logic
> ---------------------
>
> Key: LIBCLOUD-360
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-360
> Project: Libcloud
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Storage
> Reporter: Ben McCann
>
> I'd frequently upload 100GB+ files to OpenStack object storage (Swift), but
> have run into trouble with tools that don't retry as it can be tough to do
> such a large transfer without any network hiccup. I'm currently using the
> official python-swiftclient since it has retry logic (see
> https://github.com/openstack/python-swiftclient/blob/master/swiftclient/client.py),
> but I like that libcloud works with other providers such as S3 and Azure as
> well. The python-swiftclient has an exponential backoff where it sleeps first
> 1 second, then 2, then 4, up to a max of 64 seconds between retries (1 and 64
> are the min and max, but are configurable). It would be great to see a
> similar logic in libcloud.
