Nextflow: Data-Driven Computational Pipelines
I've considered using Nextflow for bioinformatics pipelines but have yet to take the plunge. At work, I develop a proteomics pipeline that is composed of huey¹ tasks (Python library; simple alternative to Celery) which either use subprocess to call out to some external tool, or are just pure python. It runs in a worker container which is created by docker swarm, and all containers pull jobs from redis. For our scale, it works great. However, I don't have control over the resource utilization of individual steps, and in the past I've had issues with the pipeline blocking as a result of how I was chaining tasks together. I think something like Nextflow would remove these limitations, but one thing I think I would miss is the ability to debug individual pipeline steps locally with an interactive debugger. As far as I can tell, Nextflow has logging/tracing facilities but nothing quite like an interactive debugger. I'd be happy to be told I'm wrong, or even that I'm doing it wrong.

Background jobs with Django
Other options are DjangoQ and Huey, which tend to work ok. Of the two I prefer DjangoQ. Database backed, don't require the Redis/Celery rigmarole.

What's the best thing you've learned about Django this year?
Funny, just this moment i finally switched from Celery to huey. And so far I don't regret. huey looks very promising, has good documentation and is well integrated into DJango. You should give it a try: https://github.com/coleifer/huey

Not sure if I should use celery or asyncio

Inngest raises $3M seed to build the reliable workflow platform for every dev
Using something like Dramatiq [1] with Redis, writing a background job takes minutes, and can be deployed alongside an existing Python web app. There are probably JS equivalents.
I think Inngest could be a useful service, but the comparison felt off for me - it made me feel like this wasn't solving a real problem.

Taskiq: async celery alternative
Hello everyone. We want to present you Taskiq: our new project that allows sending tasks using distributed queues. Conceptually it's similar to Celery or Dramatiq but with full asyncio and type hints support. Taskiq can send and execute async functions and has many integrations with different queue implementations.

Django Styleguide
I spent 3 years building a high scale crawler on top of Celery.
I can't recommend it. We found many bugs in the more advanced features of Celery (like Canvas) we also ran into some really weird issues like tasks getting duplicated for no reason [1].
The most concerning problem is that the project was abandoned. The original creator is not working on it anymore and all issues that we raised were ignored. We had to fork the project and apply our own fixes to it. This was 4 years ago so maybe things improved since them.
Celery is also extremely complex.
I would recommend https://dramatiq.io/ instead.
