Abstract
Techniques are disclosed for a client-and-server architecture where the client makes deferred API calls to the server. The server may receive such a deferred API call, and evaluate whether the call will be executed at the future time specified in the call. The server may use a model of tasks already scheduled to be performed at the future time, or projected to be performed at the future time, and compare those tasks against a projected capacity at the future time. Where there will be sufficient capacity, the server may execute process the deferred API call at the future time, and where there will not be sufficient capacity, the server may inform the client that the call will not be processed at the future time.
