Summary

  • Implements retry logic with exponential backoff to handle transient API failures
  • Focuses on brief interruptions (max 1 minute retry window)
  • Prevents unnecessary adapter restarts and data collection gaps

Changes

  • Added retry mechanism to API client with exponential backoff
  • Handles timeout errors, connection failures, and HTTP 503/504 responses
  • Respects context cancellation during retry loops

Test Plan

  • Verify code compiles successfully
  • Run existing test suite
  • Monitor adapter behavior in production for improved stability
  • Verify retry behavior under simulated timeout conditions

Add retry logic for transient API errors in SentinelOne adapter
bba241f 
Implement exponential backoff retry mechanism to handle temporary failures:
- Retry on timeout errors (context deadline exceeded, Client.Timeout)
- Retry on HTTP 503 (Service Unavailable) and 504 (Gateway Timeout)
- Retry on connection errors (refused, reset)
- Max retry duration: 1 minute for brief transient failures
- Exponential backoff: 1s initial, 10s max, 2x multiplier

This improves reliability by handling intermittent API issues without
requiring manual adapter restarts.
