Don't we already have retries supported in our client? https:/Kong/go-database-reconciler/blob/25ccc04e6c42e1b447070391e3938913deaed9fb/pkg/utils/types.go#L182

Yeah the client does have it, but the authentication layer still returns 429. The Konnect's login_service uses a normal http request here and is not retried. Does the client retry it by default?
I added my own retry layer but it still fails with 429 with 5 retries. Trying with an increased backoff period.

Works fine with an increased backoff period.
I tried the pipeline run thrice and it succeeds each time.
