    The Go ecosystem has many brilliant distributed task queue libraries, but sometimes we still have to settle for some bloated cross-platform solution in order to work with components written in other languages. To solve this problem, we created Ratus, which is a service, not a library. It translated concepts of distributed task queues into a set of resources that conform to REST principles and provides an easy-to-use HTTP API. Ratus is implemented in Go, and comes with a Go client library. Asynchronous task queues are typically used for long-running background tasks, so the overhead of the HTTP API is not significant compared to the time spent by the tasks themselves. On the other hand, the HTTP-based RESTful API can be easily accessed by all languages without using dedicated client libraries.

The current default storage engine is MongoDB (in-memory store coming soon), we will also try to integrate existing Go task queue libraries.
