Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Choose Postgres Queue Technology
For running queues on Postgres with Node.js backend(s), I highly recommend https://github.com/timgit/pg-boss. I'm sure it has it scale limits. But if you're one of the 90% of the apps that never needs any kind of scale that a modern server can't easily handle then it's fantastic. You get transactional queueing of jobs, and it automatically handles syncing across multiple job processing servers using Postgres locks.

SQL Maxis: Why We Ditched RabbitMQ and Replaced It with a Postgres Queue
If you don't want to roll your own, look into https://github.com/timgit/pg-boss

Which tool/library well adopted to use Postgres as a message broker?
I saw this https://github.com/timgit/pg-boss but it's more for jobs than for message with multiple consumers (having their own progress offset).

How to schedule tasks in a Node.js app 🕙
The best I've used till now. Has all kind of features and really great when you have a postgres dB in your stack. https://github.com/timgit/pg-boss

You don't need distributed systems.
You can use the simplest option than implement a new service. Keep in mind that every running system can be a job scheduler, you can just use nodejs worker threads, Redis, or even your DB as a job scheduler, check PGBoss for example.

Launch HN: Convoy (YC W22) – Open-source cloud-native webhooks service
Both! For context, we're currently using https://github.com/timgit/pg-boss as a task queue on top of postgres and it works great. No need to complicate things with Redis. I believe it's quite straightforward to implement a task queue on top of postgres using the SKIP LOCKED functionality.

Building Llama as a Service (LaaS)
Although they did not make it into production, I experimented with the RabbitMQ message broker, Python (Django, Flask), Kubernetes + minikube, JWT, and NGINX. This was a hobby project, but I intended to learn about microservices along the way.

FastStream: Python's framework for Efficient Message Queue Handling
Later, we discovered Propan, a library created by Nikita Pastukhov, which solved similar problems but for RabbitMQ. Recognizing the potential for collaboration, we joined forces with Nikita to build a unified library that could work seamlessly with both Kafka and RabbitMQ. And that's how FastStream came to be—a solution born out of the need for simplicity and efficiency in microservices development.

The Complete Microservices Guide
Inter-Service Communication: Middleware provides communication channels and protocols that enable microservices to communicate with each other. This can include message brokers like RabbitMQ, Apache Kafka, RPC frameworks like gRPC, or RESTful APIs.

Project Structure Review [.Net] [Console]
This is an implementation of pub/sub. The publisher is on a separate project. The message broker is Azure Service Bus. We use NServiceBus for code implementation. I use rabbitMQ broker for local tests. Nothing I can do about the tech stack. This is more of a high level single project structure review 😅

The Role of Queues in Building Efficient Distributed Applications
RabbitMQ is a robust and highly configurable open-source message broker that implements the Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP).

Should I chain calls in backend?
When using third-party services, especially within a "transaction", it's often a good idea to use a persistent Message Queue (MQ) system like RabbitMQ. Go through all their tutorials to get a really good understanding of how message queues work and how they can be used to solve your problem.
- Node still seems better than python after all this time for web server speed but..

Delayed events pattern, no more crons
The best technical solution to provide the event queues is to use a message-broker technology like RabbitMQ.
