Defend your app with Hystrix, a latency and fault tolerance library developed by the Netflix API team. It works by isolating points of access to remote systems, services and 3rd party libraries, thereby stopping cascading failure and providing fallback options, and making complex distributed systems more resilient in cases where failure is inevitable.
In a distributed environment, failure is simply inevitable for some service dependencies. With Hystrix you can control the interactions between these distributed services and protect your host application. Hystrix also allows you to fail fast and rapidly recover, fallback and gracefully degrade when possible, and monitor and control operations near real-time.
Features
- Protects from and controls latency and failure from dependencies
- Stops cascading failures in a complex distributed system
- Fail fast and rapid recovery
- Thread and semaphore isolation with circuit breakers
- Offers fallback options and graceful degrading when possible
- Enable near real-time monitoring, alerting, and operational control
- Concurrency
