Latency Failover Policy

Latency Failover Policy is a networking resilience policy that defines when traffic should move to another path or region for time between request and response. It uses health signals, priorities, and cooldown windows so teams can recover from outages predictably while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.

“The network engineering team used Latency Failover Policy when a user saw slow responses, so the team could recover from outages predictably before traffic crossed a service boundary.”
