Discussion: Graceful shutdown: handling SIGTERM in services
Entries
Long grace periods delay deployments and, during an incident, delay the restart that would fix it. There is a ceiling: if a request legitimately takes longer than the grace period, the design should make it resumable rather than stretching the period. The article recommends configuring the period to exceed the longest work; I would cap it and fix the work instead.
