Implement circuit breaking #122

Closed adithyaselv closed 4 years ago

adithyaselv commented 4 years ago

There is a limitation in number of requests that our microservices can handle (introduced manually to mimic real systems) and since these systems can't infinitely scale horizontally , there is a issue of overloading of CPU leading to complete failure of the system leading to loss of data.

This can be prevented by implementing circuit breakers which stop the service when a fault is expected
