Question: Is there retry logic if Azure Doc db is unreachable for any reason #62

Just curious if this is supported or can be supported in future.

Thanks,

@aagarwal10 at this time, this sink doesn't support retry logic. I intentionally dropped this feature for sake of simplicity, portability and also arguably performance. Retry needs a lot of moving parts which makes sink less portable e.g. how many times it needs to try and how often. Does it need to save log messages somewhere if sink is not able to reach destination. If your application can't afford loosing log, I'd suggest to consider either FileSink or SQLite Sink.
