Implement fault tolerance in Spring Batch

I have following batch job implemented in Spring Batch config:

@Bean
public Job myJob(Step step1, Step step2, Step step3) {
    return jobs.get("myJob").start(step1).next(step2).next(step3).build();
}

@Bean
public Step step1(ItemReader<String> myReader,
        ItemProcessor<String, String> myProcessor,
        ItemWriter<String> myWriter) {
    return steps.get("step1").<String, String>chunk(1)
            .reader(myReader)
            .processor(myProcessor)
            .writer(myWriter)
            .build();
}

I would like to retry the step1 (also step2 and step3 so forth) on certain exception and rollback the job on any failure (also between the retries). I understand that rollback is not going to be automatic and I am clear what to rollback for each step with writing custom code.

What is the best way to implement this?

Fault tolerance features in Spring Batch are applied to items in chunk-oriented steps, not to the entire step.

What you can try to do is use a flow with a decider where you restart from step1 if an exception occurs in one of the subsequent steps.

Spring framework provides @Retryable and @Recover annotations to retry and to recover when something fails. You can check this article. https://www.baeldung.com/spring-retry
