Background jobs & queues.

What we like

Define jobs and workflows in Go which gives you all the functionality of Go e.g. types, calling functions, defining retries in code, etc. Transactional enqueuing helps avoid edge case failures. Queue management with error handling, scheduled jobs, snoozing jobs. Clients can subscribe to events using Go channels. Includes a management UI.

What we don't like

Primarily built in Go, although there are official clients for Python and Ruby. Relies on Postgres (which may be a good thing if you already use it and don’t need the performance of something like Redis).
