When running on AWS I used SQS Super cheap and lots of logging Used a queue per service so one thing didn't hold up another and with vapour , workers would devour the jobs

Do you just use CloudWatch to monitor the queues, or something else?

Redis with horizon

Nice. Do you ever use the pause/continue stuff that Horizon offers, or just good with the general observability? And, have you ever ran into issues with the size or your Redis instance, or need to scale up/wish you could scale down?

yep

Haha, all of the above?

It used to be strictly Redis, but lately I’ve been using mostly DB up to the point I want to introduce Horizon.

DB most of the time

With your DB-backed queues, do you ever wish you had some of the control that Horizon offers, like being able to pause and continue processors, or being able to clean failed jobs/clear jobs from the queue? Or, just generally check-in and make sure the queue is running properly and jobs are fast?

The latter
