Description

Task queues are used as a mechanism to distribute work across threads or machines. A task queue's input is a unit of work, called a task, dedicated worker processes then constantly monitor the queue for new work to perform. Celery communicates via messages, usually using a broker to mediate between clients and workers. To initiate a task a client puts a message on the queue, the broker then delivers the message to a worker. A Celery system can consist of multiple workers and brokers, giving way to high availability and horizontal scaling.
