Scenario · Software & technology

A checkout API creates duplicate orders when a request is retried after a timeout. Payment runs through an external provider. You have request IDs and logs, but no access to card details. A deadline is tomorrow and the team proposes disabling all retries.

What you will produce

Describe a safe mitigation and a longer-term design, using pseudocode if helpful. Cover idempotency, failures between payment and order creation, tests, monitoring and rollout. State what you would check before changing production.

Reflection

What changes if two requests with the same idempotency key arrive at the same time? Explain how your design prevents a race.
