Description

The zc.async package provides an easy-to-use Python tool that schedules work persistently and reliably across multiple processes and machines.

For instance...

  • Web apps: maybe your web application lets users request the creation of a large PDF, or some other expensive task. Postponed work: maybe you have a job that needs to be done at a certain time, not right now. Parallel processing: maybe you have a long-running problem that can be made to complete faster by splitting it up into discrete parts, each performed in parallel, across multiple machines. * Serial processing: maybe you want to decompose and serialize a job.

High-level features include the following:

  • easy to use; flexible configuration, changeable dynamically in production; reliable; supports high availability; good debugging tools; well-tested; and friendly to testing.

While developed as part of the Zope project, zc.async can be used stand-alone. How does it work?

The system uses the Zope Object Database (ZODB), a transactional, pickle-based Python object database, for communication and coordination among participating processes.

zc.async participants can each run in their own process, or share a process (run in threads) with other code.

The Twisted framework supplies some code (failures and reactor implementations, primarily) and some concepts to the package.
