BackgrounDRb is a Ruby job server and scheduler. Its main intent is to be |
|---|
| 4 |
used with Ruby on Rails applications for offloading long-running tasks. |
|---|
| 5 |
Since a Rails application blocks while serving a request it is best to |
|---|
| 6 |
move long-running tasks off into a background process that is divorced |
|---|
| 7 |
from http request/response cycle. |
|---|
| 8 |
|
|---|
| 9 |
This new release of BackgrounDRb is also modular and can be used without Rails so that any Ruby program or framework can use it. |
