Hi Node.js experts, There are many many modules and frameworks able to solve this problem. I'm looking for CONCRETE recommendations and guidance for well supported active implementations. e.g. pubsub, message queues etc
I'm a bit overwhelmed by the options and amount of research testing I'd have to do so hoping the community can help me narrow down the choices. Usual scenario: * Front end (FE) server receives request * FE submits task/job * Available worker pulls task or is notifed, executes, returns result * Result can be any JSON response * FE notified of response/result via Promise/Callback Objective: * Keep FE responsive focused on executing cheap operations to serve FE. * Implement architecture where tasks do not execute within a timeout can be terminated. Worker architecture: * Scale across multiple servers e.g. I just need to add more physical nodes * Configurable execution timeout resulting in termination/restart of worker process and returning a Timeout style notification * Will execute static JS file i.e. NOT dynamic task code * Resilient - handles worker process failure elegantly and restart/spawn more. I guess a common implementation will be a Worker Master running on a server, spawning X number of children that monitor a queue (pull) or are pushed a task via sockets/pipes or some other mechanism. It will be up to the Master on each physical node to monitor child worker processes and spawn more as needed.
