gRPC 4 DEADLINE_EXCEEDED vs 14 UNAVAILABLE
Both gRPC 4 (DEADLINE_EXCEEDED) and 14 (UNAVAILABLE) belong to the gRPC Status Codes category. 4 indicates that the deadline expired before the operation could complete. For operations that change the state of the system, this error may be returned even if the operation has completed successfully. Meanwhile, 14 means that the service is currently unavailable. This is most likely a transient condition, which can be corrected by retrying with a backoff.
Descrição
The deadline expired before the operation could complete. For operations that change the state of the system, this error may be returned even if the operation has completed successfully.
Quando você o vê
The RPC took longer than the configured deadline allows. Common in slow network conditions, overloaded servers, or when the deadline is set too aggressively.
Como corrigir
Increase the client deadline, optimize the server-side processing, or add server-side caching. If the operation might have succeeded, check idempotency before retrying.
Descrição
The service is currently unavailable. This is most likely a transient condition, which can be corrected by retrying with a backoff.
Quando você o vê
The server is overloaded, shutting down, or a network partition occurred. This is the most common code to retry on, as it's explicitly transient.
Como corrigir
Retry with exponential backoff. If persistent, check the server health, load balancer configuration, and network connectivity between client and server.
