Within my organization, we utilize an application that utilizes React, express, Apollo Server, and Apollo Client to showcase data from various sources. This app regularly updates the displayed data using a polling method. However, whenever I make code updates and the server experiences a brief unavailability (usually for around 2 minutes during code build commands), the front end attempts to request additional data, resulting in network errors across all dashboard components.
My query is whether there exists a viable solution for the front end to autonomously recover from these network errors without necessitating manual dashboard refreshes after each update. Essentially, is it possible to sustain the polling process instead of halting upon encountering network errors?
