Bee Queue - A simple, fast, robust job/task queue for Node.js, backed by Redis

•    Javascript

---

A simple, fast, robust job/task queue for Node.js, backed by Redis.Bee-Queue is meant to power a distributed worker pool and was built with short, real-time jobs in mind. A web server can enqueue a job, wait for a worker process to complete it, and return its results within an HTTP request. Scaling is as simple as running more workers.

dingo - An easy-to-use, distributed, extensible task/job queue framework for #golang

•    Go

---

One important concept I learned from Celery and inherited in Dingo is that Caller and Worker could share the same codebase. When you send a task message in Celery, that message will not contain any source code, but only the name of the task you want to execute. This works similarly to how host names work on the internet: every worker maintains a mapping of task names to their actual functions, called the task registry.

tasktiger - Python task queue. Because celery is gross.

•    Python

---

TaskTiger is a Python task queue using Redis.TaskTiger forks a subprocess for each task, This comes with several benefits: Memory leaks caused by tasks are avoided since the subprocess is terminated when the task is finished. A hard time limit can be set for each task, after which the task is killed if it hasn't completed. To ensure performance, any necessary Python modules can be preloaded in the parent process.

react-native-queue - A React Native Job Queue

•    Javascript

---

A React Native at-least-once priority job queue / task queue backed by persistent Realm storage. Jobs will persist until completed, even if user closes and re-opens app. React Native Queue is easily integrated into OS background processes (services) so you can ensure the queue will continue to process until all jobs are completed even if app isn't in focus. It also plays well with Workers so your jobs can be thrown on the queue, then processed in dedicated worker threads for greatly improved processing performance. React Native Queue is designed to be a swiss army knife for task management in React Native. It abstracts away the many annoyances related to processing complex tasks, like durability, retry-on-failure, timeouts, chaining processes, and more. Just throw your jobs onto the queue and relax - they're covered.

yotaq - yotaq - Your Own Task Queue for Python

•    Python

---

So you need a task queue for your Python project. Sure you could check celery, and after three months trying to understand the basic configuration options you'll be good to go. Or you could use a simpler task queue like huey or rq. Pretty good. Our python code will use dill to serialize the functions to be run and redis to store the tasks.

Resque - Job queue in Ruby

•    Ruby

---

Resque is a Redis-backed Ruby library for creating background jobs, placing them on multiple queues, and processing them later. Queues are picked off in order of their priority. A job from a lower priority queue will only be picked off if there are no jobs for a higher priority queue available.

evQueue - Job scheduler and queueing engine

•    C++

---

evQueue is an open source job scheduler and queueing engine. It features an event-driven C++ engine and a PHP / MySQL web control interface which provides tasks monitoring and creation. It provides both simple task execution and complex task chaining (workflow) using an easy to use drag & drop web interface. Workflow description includes output linking to input, conditions, loops... Queues management provides an easy way for task parallelization and resource control.

Faktory - "Takin' care of business, workin' overtime"

•    Go

---

At a high level, Faktory is a work server. It is the repository for background jobs within your application. Jobs have a type and a set of arguments and are placed into queues for workers to fetch and execute.You can use this server to distribute jobs to one or hundreds of machines. Jobs can be executed with any language by clients using the Faktory API to fetch a job from a queue.

Fireworq - Lightweight, high-performance, language-independent job queue system

•    Go

---

Fireworq is a lightweight, high-performance job queue system with the following abilities. It is available from ANY programming language which can talk HTTP. It works with a single binary without external dependencies. It is built on top of RDBMS (MySQL), so that jobs won't be lost even if the job queue process dies. You can apply an ordinary replication scheme to the underlying DB for the reliability of the DB itself.

Bistro - Flexible distributed scheduler, a high-performance framework supporting multiple paradigms while retaining ease of configuration, management, and monitoring

•    C++

---

Bistro is a toolkit for making services that schedule and execute tasks. Bistro is a toolkit for making distributed computation systems. It can schedule and run distributed tasks, including data-parallel jobs. It enforces resource constraints for worker hosts and data-access bottlenecks. It supports remote worker pools, low-latency batch scheduling, dynamic shards, and a variety of other possibilities. It has command-line and web UIs.

Sidekiq - Simple, efficient background processing for Ruby

•    Ruby

---

Simple, efficient background processing for Ruby. Sidekiq uses threads to handle many jobs at the same time in the same process. It does not require Rails but will integrate tightly with Rails 3/4 to make background processing dead simple. Sidekiq uses multithreading so it is much more memory efficient than Resque (which forks a new process for every job).
