In your application's startup or configuration, set up a Circuit Breaker policy using Polly. You can do this by creating a custom policy with specified failure thresholds and time durations. Example: using Polly; using Polly.CircuitBreaker; // Create a custom Circuit Breaker policy var circuitBreakerPolicy = Policy.Handle () .CircuitBreakerAsync(3, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30), (ex, duration) => { // Handle the circuit being broken Console.WriteLine("Circuit breaker opened due to too many exceptions."); }, () => { // Handle the circuit being reset Console.WriteLine("Circuit breaker reset."); }); // Register the policy with your dependency injection container services.AddSingleton(circuitBreakerPolicy);

Hello S A, You install the Polly Package and implement the circuit breaker pattern. You can refer to the below links. https://codingcanvas.com/implementing-retry-and-circuit-breaker-pattern-using-polly/ https://www.twilio.com/blog/using-polly-circuit-breakers-resilient-net-web-service-consumers
