Inngest
Durable, event-driven functions for serverless apps. Steps, retries, cron triggers and flow control without managing queues.
- #background-jobs
- #events
- #workflows
- #serverless
- #cron
Inngest runs durable functions triggered by events or cron schedules. Each function is split into steps. A step that succeeds is never re-run, so a failure partway through only retries what’s left.
Why it’s useful
- Event-driven: send events from your app or from third-party webhooks and fan them out to any number of functions.
- Flow control: concurrency limits, throttling, debouncing and batching are built in.
- Works with serverless: it calls your existing endpoints, so there are no workers to run.
