AWS Step Function Retires | Retry With Jitter

Question

In the [Exponential Backoff And Jitter](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/architecture/exponential-backoff-and-jitter/) aws architecture blog article it discusses the importance of having jitter as part of your retry functionality. I am currently using the baked in retry functionality with the "BackoffRate" parameter for "exponential backoff" that step functions provides. However, as far as I can tell jitter is not implemented out of the box as part of that option. Is there a way to get this functionality from the as-is step functions implementation?

It is now possible to get jitter as an out of the box feature from the step functions retry functionality. Please refer to the JitterStrategy optional parameter in this guide: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/step-functions/latest/dg/concepts-error-handling.html#error-handling-retrying-after-an-error

Take a look [here](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/step-functions/latest/dg/concepts-error-handling.html#error-handling-retrying-after-an-error) for error handling and retrying after an error. Note the BackoffRate param

Hope this helps!
