A network protocol for avoiding congestion by progressively increasing the wait time between retries after a failure.

- The server implemented exponential backoff to manage the increased load during peak hours.
- When the connection failed, the application used exponential backoff to retry the request after waiting longer each time.
- Exponential backoff is commonly used in network protocols to reduce the chance of collision when multiple devices attempt to communicate simultaneously.
