🚦 Redis

Redis is used to

  • Send email notification
  • Queue Background Jobs

we initially used the database to queue those jobs, but it was too slow and inconsistent so we finally found an alternative and moved to Redis.

☯️ Laravel Horizon

Horizon provides a beautiful dashboard and code-driven configuration for your Laravel powered Redis queues. Horizon allows you to easily monitor key metrics of your queue system such as job throughput, runtime, and job failures.
