Circuit Breakers

Breakers track the success/failure rates of operations, and "trip" (open) if the failure rate exceeds a configured threshold. A tripped Breaker immediately rejects operations that attempt to go through it by throwing a CircuitBreakerRejectedException.
After a configured period, the Breaker sends a test operation through. If the operation succeeds, the Breaker fixes itself (closes) and allows operations again.
Several properties of each Circuit Breaker can be configured at runtime. See Configuration for details.
