Backbeat is an open source workflow service for processing asynchronous tasks across distributed systems. Originally developed by Groupon and its Financial Engineering Developer team, Backbeat allows applications to process tasks across N processes/machines while maintaining the state, order, and time in which tasks will run. Tasks can spawn other tasks and will be retried if the worker process errors out.
