Circuit opens after minimum throughput reached +4. New requests fail immediately at circuit breaker +5. No retries attempted (saves resources) +6. After 30s, circuit enters half-open +7. One test request allowed +8. If succeeds, circuit closes +``` + +**Scenario 3: Slow Operation** +``` +1. Request enters timeout policy (starts 10s timer for database) +2.
