Claim 16:
17. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
receive, at an API wrapper, from a first caller, a first call to a function provided by an API;
send, by the API wrapper, the first call to the API;
store, by the API wrapper, a response from the API to the first call in a cache;
receive, by the API wrapper, from a second caller, a second call to the function provided by the API;
send, by the API wrapper, the second call to the API;
determine, by the API wrapper, that a time period has elapsed without receiving a corresponding response from the API to the second call; and
respond, by the API wrapper, based on the time period elapsing, to the second call from the second caller with the response from the API to the first call from the cache.
