Workers

Long running scripts, isolated in the background.

# About workers

A worker job is a long running task that is executing software, scripts or executables. The fortrabbit platform offers some additional abstraction. Workers are available with the jobs component and managed through the dashboard, see job usage. The job component runs in an isolated container, so that frontend and backend processes are separated.

Unlike crons, which offer scheduled execution of scripts, worker jobs can run non-stop in the background.

# Worker jobs use cases

  • Image processing
  • API communication
  • Meta data aggregation
