Advanced Circuit Breakers for Laravel
summary
Shows a concrete Laravel circuit-breaker implemented as the fuse package for queues, demonstrated with Stripe hitting 10k stuck payment jobs and reduced recovery time from hours to seconds. Uses a job middleware, tries = 0 plus max exceptions = 3, release(delay) instead of failing, cache-backed state (closed/open/half-open), 50% failure threshold and 60s half-open test allowing one probe request. Includes a dashboard and fuse with 88,000+ installs.
