These jobs can be everything from regularly scheduled -clean-ups, to billing charges, to mailings. Anything that can be chopped up into -small units of work and run in parallel, really. - -It also serves as the backend for Action Mailer's #deliver_later functionality -that makes it easy to turn any mailing into a job for running later. That's one -of the most common jobs in a modern web application: sending emails outside of -the request-response cycle, so the user doesn't have to wait on it. - -The main point is to ensure that all Rails apps will have a job infrastructure -in place, even if it's in the form of an "immediate runner". We can then have -framework features and other gems build on top of that, without having to worry -about API differences between Delayed Job and Resque. Picking your queuing -backend becomes more of an operational concern, then. And you'll be able to -switch between them without having to rewrite your jobs. - -WWW: https://rubyonrails.org/ -WWW: https://github.com/rails/rails/tree/master/activejob |
