All Implemented Interfaces:
CircuitBreaker<Long>
public class ThresholdCircuitBreaker extends AbstractCircuitBreaker<Long>

A simple implementation of the Circuit Breaker pattern that opens if the requested increment amount is greater than a given threshold.

It contains an internal counter that starts in zero, and each call increments the counter by a given amount. If the threshold is zero, the circuit breaker will be in a permanent open state.

An example of use case could be a memory circuit breaker. 

 long threshold = 10L;
 ThresholdCircuitBreaker breaker = new ThresholdCircuitBreaker(10L);
 ...
 public void handleRequest(Request request) {
     long memoryUsed = estimateMemoryUsage(request);
     if (breaker.incrementAndCheckState(memoryUsed)) {
         // actually handle this request
     } else {
         // do something else, e.g. send an error code
     }
 }

  • Constructor Details

    • ThresholdCircuitBreaker

      public ThresholdCircuitBreaker(long threshold)

      Creates a new instance of ThresholdCircuitBreaker and initializes the threshold.

      Parameters:
      threshold - the threshold.

  • Method Details

    • getThreshold

      public long getThreshold()
      Gets the threshold.
      Returns:
      the threshold

    • checkState

      public boolean checkState()
      Checks the state of this circuit breaker and changes it if necessary. The return value indicates whether the circuit breaker is now in state CLOSED; a value of true typically means that the current operation can continue.
      Specified by:
      checkState in interface CircuitBreaker<Long>
      Specified by:
      checkState in class AbstractCircuitBreaker<Long>
      Returns:
      true if the circuit breaker is now closed; false otherwise

    • close

      public void close()
      Closes this circuit breaker. Its state is changed to closed. If this circuit breaker is already closed, this method has no effect.

      Resets the internal counter back to its initial value (zero).

      Specified by:
      close in interface CircuitBreaker<Long>
      Overrides:
      close in class AbstractCircuitBreaker<Long>

    • incrementAndCheckState

      public boolean incrementAndCheckState(Long increment)
      Increments the monitored value and performs a check of the current state of this circuit breaker. This method works like CircuitBreaker.checkState(), but the monitored value is incremented before the state check is performed.

      If the threshold is zero, the circuit breaker will be in a permanent open state.

      Specified by:
      incrementAndCheckState in interface CircuitBreaker<Long>
      Specified by:
      incrementAndCheckState in class AbstractCircuitBreaker<Long>
      Parameters:
      increment - value to increment in the monitored value of the circuit breaker
      Returns:
      true if the circuit breaker is now closed; false otherwise
