Choose Postgres Queue Technology
> Can you define "low throughput"?
<1000 messages per minute
Not saying SKIP LOCKED can't work with that many. But you'll probably want to do something better.
FWIW, Que uses advisory locks [1]

Introducing tobox: a transactional outbox framework
Probably worth mentioning that aside from delayed_job there are at least two more modern alternatives backed by the DB: Que and good_job.

Sidekiq jobs in ActiveRecord transactions
Good article. Sidekiq is a good, well respected too. However if you are starting out I would recommend not using it, and instead choosing a DB based queue system. We have great success with que, but there are others like good_job.

SQL Maxis: Why We Ditched RabbitMQ and Replaced It with a Postgres Queue
(not sure why this comment was dead, I vouched for it)
There are a lot of ways to implement a queue in an RDBMS and a lot of those ways are naive to locking behavior. That said, with PostgreSQL specifically, there are some techniques that result in an efficient queue without locking problems. The article doesn't really talk about their implementation so we can't know what they did, but one open source example is Que[1]. Que uses a combination of advisory locking rather than row-level locks and notification channels to great effect, as you can read in the README.

Delayed Job vs. Sidekiq: Which Is Better?
https://github.com/que-rb/que
This one seems to be the most performant. By a lot too, from my understanding (haven't ran any benchmark myself, but the readme shows some good postgres knowledge)

Sidekiq VS Que - a user suggested alternative
2 projects | 3 Feb 2022
Que seems like a good alternative if one doesn't want to use Reids. However, given that most apps need Redis (and have it within their infrastructure) nowadays, I still think that Sidekiq is the better option in the generic case.

Devious SQL: Message Queuing Using Native PostgreSQL
Implementations that use advisory locks like https://github.com/que-rb/que are much more efficient (atleast when I last tested) and will easily reach 10k job/s on even very modest hardware.
There is a Go port of Que but you can also easily port it to any language you like. I have a currently non-OSS implementation in Rust that I might OSS someday when I have time to clean it up.

Postgres is a great pub/sub and job server
It’s also possible to use advisory locks to implement a job queue in Postgres. See e.g. Que[1]. Note there are a fair number of corner cases, so studying Que is wise if trying to implement something like this, as well as some (a bit older) elaboration[2].
We implemented a similar design to Que for a specific use case in our application that has a known low volume of jobs and for a variety of reasons benefits from this design over other solutions.

Ruby Schedulers: Whenever vs Sidekiq Cron vs Sidekiq Scheduler
Do also take into consideration que-scheduler (disclaimer, am author). It is built on top of the robust que async job system.
