About the Book
Most applications have some type of work that can be performed independently from the client request cycle. You can defer these types of work into a memory queue or, to survive crashes, a persisted queue. A distributed queue separates the work producer from the work consumer, allowing you to perform work on a different process.
This book will show you how to create and consume work in a local or distributed environment using Node.
