An optimizer module can function as a proxy between clients and a server that provides access to a service via a REST API. As a proxy, the optimizer module can receive requests from the clients and can combine the requests into a single bulk request that is then submitted to the server. By combining multiple independent requests into a single bulk request, the optimizer module can reduce the total number of concurrent requests and thereby increase the total number of clients that can concurrently submit requests. In some cases, the optimizer module may be configured to apply optimizing rules when generating a bulk request.
