Description

Allow the proxy to serve stale HTTP response from downstream API if the API is not responsive

**Which integration(s) is this request for?**
EC2 and ECS

**Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve. What are you trying to do, and why is it hard?**
We use Nginx today which allows you to set short TTLs on caches per endpoint (10 seconds/60 seconds) but also we can configure Nginx to use stale cache if there is a failure or timeout with the downstream service. This greatly improves response times and reliability.

**Are you currently working around this issue?**
We currently use NGINX
