## Values

| Name                    | Value | Description                                                            |
| ----------------------- | ----- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `Fixed`                 | 0     | Use a fixed delay between all retry attempts.                          |
| `Linear`                | 1     | Increase delay linearly with each retry attempt.                       |
| `Exponential`           | 2     | Increase delay exponentially with each retry attempt.                  |
| `ExponentialWithJitter` | 3     | Use exponential backoff with random jitter to prevent thundering herd. |
