I use axios retry with a max of 3 retries and exponential backoff. It’s a good way to handle server load gracefully.

For logging, I log every retry but only store the final failure in the database. Helps with debugging without cluttering the logs.

If you’re new, I’d suggest trying out the `axios-retry` library first. It’s super easy to configure and saves a lot of time.
