How does the default reconnection strategy for connectors operate upon a failed connectivity test?

The default reconnection strategy for connectors in MuleSoft is designed to handle connectivity issues gracefully. When a connectivity test fails, the strategy logs the failure and allows the application to continue functioning. This approach ensures that temporary connectivity issues do not completely disrupt application operations. Instead of halting the application, which could lead to significant downtime or loss of functionality, it simply records the failure in the logs for further investigation. This allows developers or operators to assess the situation without immediate impact on overall application performance. The strategy focuses on maintaining the stability and availability of the application while simultaneously providing a mechanism to monitor and address connectivity issues as they arise.
