In modern API development, one of the most critical challenges is ensuring that operations don’t execute multiple times accidentally. Imagine a user making a payment and, due to connectivity issues, clicking the “Pay” button multiple times. Without proper measures, you might process multiple payments for the same transaction. This is where idempotency comes into play.
Idempotency is a mathematical concept applied to programming that guarantees that an operation produces the same result regardless of how many times it’s executed. In the context of APIs, it means you can make the same request multiple times without causing additional side effects.
