Hello! After a brief train-strike-related pause we’re back for another gathering of Ruby heads here in the Rainy City.
This month Daniel Magliola is travelling to Manchester to share his talk on job queues, with a focus on strategies to keep those jobs flowing: Like most web applications, you run important jobs in the background. And today, some of your urgent jobs are running late. Again. No matter how many changes you make to how you enqueue and run your jobs, the problem keeps happening. The good news is you're not alone. Most teams struggle with this problem, try more or less the same solutions, and have roughly the same result. In the end, it all boils down to one thing: keeping latency low. In this talk I will present a latency-focused approach to managing your queues reliably, keeping your jobs flowing and your users happy. This talk went down a storm at the most recent RubyConf and also at SREcon23 in the US. As alway’s we’ll be meeting on the third Thursday (17th) from 6:30pm. Our hosts are once again the good folks at IntelliCentrics who’ll be providing drinks and pizza for all. Please do register on Eventbrite <https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/what-does-high-priority-mean-the-secret-to-happy-web-app-job-queues-tickets-685760938427> if you plan to attend. This helps us plan for adequate pizzas and refreshments for you all. Also familiarise yourself with our code of conduct <https://nwrug.org/code-of-conduct> to help ensure everyone stays happy and all goes swimmingly.
