Resque is a Redis-backed Ruby library for creating background jobs, placing those jobs on multiple queues, and processing them later. Background jobs can be any Ruby class or module that responds to perform. Your existing classes can easily be converted to background jobs or you can create new classes specifically to do work. Or, you can do both. Resque is heavily inspired by DelayedJob (which rocks) and is comprised of three parts: * A Ruby library for creating, querying, and processing jobs * A Rake task for starting a worker which processes jobs * A Sinatra app for monitoring queues, jobs, and workers.

Simple, efficient background processing for Ruby.

Delayed_job (or DJ) encapsulates the common pattern of asynchronously executing longer tasks in the background. It is a direct extraction from Shopify where the job table is responsible for a multitude of core tasks.

Beanstalk is a simple, fast work queue.

Easy to use, feature complete Ruby client for RabbitMQ 3.3 and later versions.

Modern concurrency tools including agents, futures, promises, thread pools, actors, supervisors, and more. Inspired by Erlang, Clojure, Go, JavaScript, actors, and classic concurrency patterns.

Background processing, simplified

queue_classic is a queueing library for Ruby apps. (Rails, Sinatra, Etc...) queue_classic features asynchronous job polling, database maintained locks and no ridiculous dependencies. As a matter of fact, queue_classic only requires pg.

The crowd, suddenly there where there was nothing before, is a mysterious and universal phenomenon. A few people may have been standing together -- five, ten or twelve, nor more; nothing has been announced, nothing is expected. Suddenly everywhere is black with people and more come streaming from all sides as though streets had only one direction.

A Ruby/Rails job server and scheduler

Starling is a light-weight, persistent queue server that speaks the memcached protocol. It was originally developed for Twitter's backend.

a Ruby library for queuing and processing background jobs with configurable backends.

Resque-mongo is a fork of resque that uses mongo as a queue backend.
