Cloudflare has built-in retry settings. Navigate to the 'Speed' section in your Cloudflare dashboard. Look for the 'Retry' settings and configure the 'Retry after' and 'Number of retries' parameters. Adjust these values based on your origin server's stability. A reasonable starting point is to set 'Retry after' to 5-10 seconds and 'Number of retries' to 3-5. Be cautious with excessive retries, as they can negatively impact user experience.
