-Making network requests more resilient to error.
-- less errors, by retrying
-- less time, by setting granular timeouts
+Making network requests more resilient
+- waste less time on failures by using dynamic, granular timeouts and deadeline propagation
+- reduce errors by automatically retrying idempotent calls
+- observe every network connection and request
