Description-en: 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 is compatible with Resque. It uses the exact same
message format as Resque so it can integrate into an existing Resque
processing farm.
.
You can have Sidekiq and Resque run side-by-side at the same time and
use the Resque client to enqueue jobs in Redis to be processed by Sidekiq.
