Fix MasterNotFoundError
in Redis Python
✅ Solution
MasterNotFoundError usually means the Redis client is trying to connect to a master node that is no longer available or hasn't been elected yet. Implement a retry mechanism with exponential backoff when catching the MasterNotFoundError exception during connection or operation attempts. This allows the client to automatically reconnect to a valid master after failover or initial cluster setup.
