Description

Hi,

We sometimes have ThrottlingExceptions when using the 'CreateOrUpdateStack' which cause our deployments to fail.

Can the task be made to do a retry (with a backoff) when experiencing a trotteling exception from the AWS api?

Cheers,

Hans

Research direction

Start by locating the CreateOrUpdateStack task and the AWS API call it uses; review the reported throttling failures and any existing task tests. Done means deployments tolerate AWS throttling through retries with backoff instead of failing immediately.
