What problem does it solve?

Horizon queue processing often fails silently or becomes hard to tune, making throughput, reliability, and SLA compliance difficult to measure and act on.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Naming & Tags for Traceability: Use named queues and domain-identifying tags (like user/aggregate IDs) so you can correlate jobs with business context during investigations and analytics.
• Right-Sized Workers & Concurrency: Configure --max-time, --tries, and --backoff, and isolate critical queues into dedicated supervisors to improve performance and fault isolation.
• Failure Handling and Actionable Metrics: Capture failures with structured context and ensure idempotency for safe retries, while tracking throughput, runtime distributions, retry rates, failure rates, and time-to-handle to power dashboards and health indicators.

Quick Start

Configure Horizon supervisors with named queues and domain tags, add failure logging with structured context and idempotent job design, then build dashboards tracking throughput, runtime distribution, retries, failure rate, and backlog/SLA health.
