A robust message queue system for Rust applications, designed as a Rust alternative to Celery . Currently Redis-backed, with planned support for RabbitMQ, Kafka, and other message brokers. This is by no means a finished product, but we're actively working on it and would love your feedback and contributions! [ dependencies ] broccoli_queue = " 0.1.0 " Quick Start Producer use broccoli_queue :: { queue :: BroccoliQueue , brokers :: broker :: BrokerMessage } ; use serde :: { Serialize , Deserialize } ; # [ derive ( Debug , Clone , Serialize , Deserialize ) ] struct JobPayload { id : String , task_name : String , } # [ tokio :: main ] async fn main ( ) -> Result < ( ) , Box < dyn std :: error…from github.com

Hatchet – Open-source distributed task queue2024 · github.com · ▲578Hello HN, we're Gabe and Alexander from Hatchet (https://hatchet.run), we're working on an open-source, distributed task queue. It's an alternative to tools like Celery for Python and BullMQ for Node.js, primarily focused on reliability and observability. It uses Postgres for the underlying queue. Why build another managed queue? We wanted to build something with the benefits of full transactional enqueueing - particularly for dependent, DAG-style execution - and felt strongly that Postgres solves for 99.9% of queueing use-cases better than most alternatives (Celery uses Redis or…

Turbolite – a SQLite VFS serving sub-250ms cold JOIN queries from S3Mar 2026 · github.com · ▲185I built a SQLite VFS in Rust that serves cold queries directly from S3 with sub-second performance, and often much faster. It’s called turbolite. It is experimental, buggy, and may corrupt data. I would not trust it with anything important yet. I wanted to explore whether object storage has gotten fast enough to support embedded databases over cloud storage. Filesystems reward tiny random reads and in-place mutation. S3 rewards fewer requests, bigger transfers, immutable objects, and aggressively parallel operations where bandwidth is often the real constraint. This was explicitly inspired…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
