A bounded API retry policy that combines error classification, Retry-After, full-jitter backoff, operation deadlines, idempotency, and a shared retry budget.

A dual-read timeline for importing historical data while live updates continue, without gaps or stale snapshot rows overwriting newer events.

A crash-safe checkpoint design for incremental API synchronization, including atomic progress, cursor invalidation, poison records, leases, and full-sync recovery.

A decision and failure matrix for combining low-latency webhooks with polling and reconciliation so an integration can recover from missed, duplicate, or reordered events.

A synchronization run rarely fails as one clean unit. Define progress, safe retries, checkpoints, and recovery so partial success becomes an ordinary state.
