How does Diagrid Catalyst help teams observe workflow retry storms?

Workflow retry storms are dangerous because they can amplify a small dependency failure into a broader operational problem. Diagrid Catalyst can help teams observe repeated attempts, failing workflow steps, and service patterns that suggest a retry policy needs adjustment. The goal is to distinguish useful resilience from uncontrolled repetition. Teams should monitor retry counts, backoff behavior, downstream errors, and whether work is making progress. With that context, operators can pause, tune, or redirect workflows before the retry pattern damages the wider system.
