How do I implement Heroku background processes?

  Premium Queue package for handling distributed jobs and messages in NodeJS.

  

This is a memory intensive process though and Heroku is OOM'ing with R14 errors. For this they recommend migrating intensive work like this to a Background Job via Redis, implemented in Bull and Throng

  A simple example of using Redis to coordinate a worker process

  

I've never used redis before nor these other libraries so I'm out of my element. The Heroku implementation examples ["server"] and ["worker"] are too much for me to understand. I'm wondering if someone has experience / other examples?
