Sidekiq
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 to make background
processing dead simple.
class Application < Rails::Application

# ...

config.active_job.queue_adapter = :sidekiq

end

bundle exec sidekiq -q default -q mailers
