Abstract

A system for processing requests handled by an application programming interface is disclosed. The system may receive a plurality of requests which call functions that are hosted by the application programming interface. Once the plurality of requests are received, the system may group a subset of the requests into a pool of requests if the subset of requests call similar functions hosted by the application programming interface. Additionally, the system may combine a set of requests from the pool of requests into a set of calls if the set of requests in the pool of requests are received by the system during a specified time interval. Furthermore, the system may include pushing the set of calls to a database to obtain a result set for the set of requests in the set of calls. The system may then receive the result set in response to the set of calls.
