Keybase proof

I hereby claim:

  • I am jameslafa on github.
  • I am jameslafa (https://keybase.io/jameslafa) on keybase.
  • I have a public key ASAWFkLVBvndTyh-TtPTyARV9zAKQI_CuebhX1xJkPJXnQo

To claim this, I am signing this object:

In case Redis is down, the job will be perform synchronously instead of crashing.

On your job, use perform_later_with_failover instead of perform_later.

Take this into account:

  1. You should find a way to monitor that Redis/Sidekiq is down and be alerted. You will be in a degraded mode if the task are executed synchronously and you should be aware of this as soon as possible
  2. You should use perform_later_with_failover only if you expect the execution time of the task to be fairly short (send email, slack notification, etc.) If you know the task requires time to be perform, it's not a good solution because your user's browser will be blocked.
