Flamingo makes it easy to wade through the Twitter Streaming API by handling all connectivity and resource management for you. You just tell it what to track and consume the information in a resque queue. Flamingo isn't a traditional ruby gem. You don't require it into your code. Instead, it's designed to run as a daemon like redis or mysql. It provides a REST interface to change the parameters sent to the Twitter Streaming resource. All events from the streaming API are placed on a resque job queue where your application can process them. CAVEAT EMPTOR: This gem is alpha code so act accordingly.

Load GeoTIFFs and Shapefiles to Geoserver, Geonetwork, and Solr.

Uses Resque Job Hooks and the Heroku API gem to autoscale Heroku Resque workers

Auto scale your resque workers on Heroku.

Runtime tracking of finite data sets

Process KISSmetrics data dumps

When your resque jobs are frequent and fast, the overhead of forking and running your after_fork might get too big. You may limit by either job limit or time limit per fork.

Implements common components and features for Rails-based LCMS systems

Manage your organization's workflows entirely through Google Docs and irb. Mobilize schedules jobs, queues workers, sends failure notifications, and integrates mobilize-hadoop, -http, -mysql, and -mongodb packages to allow seamless transport of TSV and JSON data between any two endpoints.

Mysql replication, could cause a number of issues if the tables that are being replicated are locked. Myreplicator is designed to replace Mysql's replication with a flat file based system.

A multi-branch Continuous Integration server that integrates with GitHub

Take a peek into your Resque queues and workers.

Sends messages to kafka using different formats and strategies

A Redis-backed concurrency management system

By allowing multiple jobs to share a single socket, which is persisted over the life of the worker, this plugin is an important building block for implementing a Resque-based service send background iPhone messages via the Apple Push Notification servers.

With this gem you will be able to enqueue your emails on your Resque workers to avoid making your user wait for the email to be send when he causes an email sending action in your application. Using resque_action_mailer_backend makes email sending a breeze as you will be able to use Resque to retry failed emails, easily deliver all those marketing emails to your clients and without changing anything at your email sending code. Just tell your application to use :resque for sending emails and you're done, no need to add yet another tool just for delivering your emails if you're already using Resque for your asynchronous processing.

This gem makes it possible to send mails asynchronously using Resque by simply rewriting `SomeMailer.some_mail(ar_resource, 1234).deliver` to `SomeMailer.async_deliver.some_mail(ar_resource, 1234)`. Using ActiveRecord objects as arguments to mailers is still possible. This is achieved by storing the class name and the record id as arguments in the Resque queue which will be transformed back to records by the mailer job and passed along to the mailer.

Make Active Record instance methods asynchronous using resque.

There are a number of plugins which allow you define unique jobs, but each only handle on use-case. This allows you have full control over how uniqueness is defined
