This is a great reply! The greatest difficulty I face is convincing my data engineers to stop reinventing the wheel and leverage existing (and appropriate!) tools. Writing code to directly manage events and batch jobs should be a thing of the past by now. Pick a tool. Configure your jobs, retry policy, etc. and be done with it.

If they need convincing they are not engineers and maybe you want to let them go and destroy one of your competitors?
