State
The initial state when initializing a CircuitBreaker is Closed.
The available states are:
Types
Closed is the normal state of the CircuitBreaker, where requests are being made. The state in which CircuitBreaker starts. - When an exceptions occurs it increments the failure counter - A successful request will reset the failure counter to zero - When the failure counter reaches the maxFailures threshold, the breaker is tripped into the Open state
The CircuitBreaker is in HalfOpen state while it's allowing a test request to go through.
When the CircuitBreaker is in the Open state it will short-circuit/fail-fast all requests - All requests short-circuit/fail-fast with ExecutionRejected - If a request is made after the configured resetTimeout passes, the CircuitBreaker is tripped into the a HalfOpen state, allowing one request to go through as a test.
