Faktory VS gocelery

Mike Perham (the sidekiq maintainer) also maintains the less well known faktory[0] which is language agnostic and has runners for both Ruby and Python

Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance's entire thesis is "What is Quality?" How do you define it? How does it come about?

You can still get software quality but you have to be willing to devote time and effort to it. The binary for my modern, commercial background job engine written in Go, Faktory, is 5MB in size.

I know when I see an iOS app that is 5-10MB in size, I know it was crafted by someone who cares.

My recent queue foray put me on the scent of Faktory, a language-agnostic queue server made by Sidekiq's author. I noticed there wasn't a good PHP client (the one linked in the docs is pretty old), so I decided to build one.

At work we use https://github.com/contribsys/faktory

Have you heard of faktory before? Made by the sidekiq guy and allows you to d a similar thing.

I’ve started using Faktory with the Faktory Worker Python it also supports workers in any language.

Try https://github.com/contribsys/faktory which is written in go but you interact with it as a service.

There is faktory, from the author of Sidekiq, which is language-agnostic (the server is written in Go).

I had a look at: 1. machinery - https://github.com/RichardKnop/machinery 2. go-celery - https://github.com/gocelery/gocelery 3. asynq - https://github.com/hibiken/asynq 3. taskq - https://github.com/vmihailenco/taskq

What about https://github.com/gocelery/gocelery ?

go-celery (https://github.com/gocelery/gocelery): Celery port in Go. Not much recent activity so a bit worried it's abandoned.

Please note that this blog post uses a Golang application (thanks to gocelery!) as an example, but the same applies to Python or any other application that uses the Celery protocol.
