Background/Workflow tasks with Hono

[vikiival]

Hey,

I have a question about how to handle background or workflow tasks with Hono.
For example, I would like to run some work after sending a response, such as sending an email, calling an external API, or doing some data processing.

I am aware of waitUntil in Cloudflare, however what if you are using Deno or Node.js server for your backend?

What is the best way to handle this kind of task in Hono?

You could look into BullMQ. Upon sending a response, add a job in a queue which will be picked up by the Bullmq worker. You would want to deploy the workers in a separate instance.
