I am wondering a couple things First, are there any good, open source, perl-based queue
systems out there? I think I would like a stable, centralized daemon,
which likely rules out many systems. Second, is anyone interesting in working on a queue system
with mod_perl2/apache2 as it's basis, using the mod_echo, arbitrary
protocol stuff? Basically, you would register servers and jobs with the
daemon, and then the daemon would give jobs out, perhaps wait for them to
finish and then return appropriate output. The system would also handle job
dependencies. I would like to be pretty open, and would hope to easily
handle some basic job types, like
I think using mod_perl2/apache2 would be ideal. Could use
apache2 to give jobs to non-mod_perl processes if desired. I think that if
apache2 could manage forking, children and the like that would save many headaches. I think I even have a name, PDQ, which could stand for Perl
Dynamic Queue, or yeah, Pretty Darn Quick. Feed back welcome. Thanks, Earl |
