dsw

dsw is a service to run jobs that makes a POST request to a URI at a specified time with an optional payload.

• On a 2xx response the job is logged as a success.
• On a 4xx response the request is not retried and logged as a failure.
• On a 5xx response the request is retried 3 times with exponential backoff and logged as a failure barring any successes on a retry.
• If the optional error_url parameter is passed it will be called with the payload on a failure following the above rules.
