A one-second backoff? Really? That's barely enough time for the server to recover. We need something with a bit more oomph.

I'm not sure about option A. Maybe option D could work too, by queuing the object and retrying later. It gives users a clear expectation.

I agree with Eleonora. Exponential backoff is a common strategy to handle errors and improve application resilience.

I think option A is the best choice. Exponential backoff can help handle temporary errors like the HTTP 504 Gateway Timeout.

Exponential backoff is definitely the way to go here. That will give us the best chance of success without overloading the system.
