> Better handling of API rate limits
> ----------------------------------
>
> Key: JCLOUDS-100
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCLOUDS-100
> Project: jclouds
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.5.10
> Reporter: Omar Alrubaiyan
> Assignee: Andrew Bayer
> Priority: Critical
>
> Right now it seems that there is some retry logic when API operations fail.
> However, the retry logic does not handle hitting the API rate limit very
> well. The problem is that the retries are done successively instead of
> exponential back-off retries which is the recommended way of dealing with EC2
> API limits.
