Optimizing Speed: Overcoming EuroTour Hotels' API Search and Results
EuroTour hotels encountered a significant challenge with search and results, as it took an intolerable 5 minutes for them to appear, which was frustrating for users.
The solution involved a thorough analysis, which revealed that a single cron job was responsible for retrieving all the necessary hotel booking details. To improve the speed, we divided the query into multiple scheduled cron jobs and made modifications to eliminate redundant requests.
As a result, the speed improved dramatically, and users could now access the details they needed within a maximum of 15 seconds.
Addressing Data Consistency Challenges
This variability led to inconsistencies across various hotel requests.
To address this issue, our solution involved code optimization, wherein we implemented a more consistent data retrieval approach using a ternary operator. This adjustment ensured dependable operations on the response data.

Efficiency Enhancement for Europe Tours Data Update
Sportsparadise encountered a significant challenge when saving updated details from Europe Tours, primarily due to the substantial volume of data, which caused the cron job to run excessively long, compromising the accuracy of data saving.
In response to this issue, following an in-depth analysis and brainstorming session, we refined the approach by implementing a query to specifically target and process only the hotel details that were either updated or deleted. This strategic modification significantly improved the efficiency of the data update process, ensuring that only relevant data was processed, making the entire operation more time-effective.
