Comparing the Idle API and the Optimizer API

Understand the main differences between the Idle API and the Optimizer API.

Table 1. Comparison between the Idle API and the Optimizer API
Idle API Optimizer API
Use this API to:
  • Make a preliminary assist assessment of the benefits of optimization to recover any integration issues.
  • Uncover any integration issues.
  • Compare key performance indicators (KPIs), with and without optimization.
Use this API when you are sure about not having any major integration issues.
Enables asynchronous order optimization. Enables synchronous order optimization. The order is processed immediately. The caller receives the optimization response along with the API response.
