Procrastinate is a powerful PostgreSQL-based task queue for Python, built to integrate seamlessly with Django and FastAPI. It allows you to schedule and execute background jobs using your existing database infrastructure, avoiding the need for additional queueing systems like Redis. Procrastinate is designed with simplicity, reliability, and observability in mind.

Features

  • Uses PostgreSQL as the job store with no external dependencies
  • Native integration with Django and FastAPI
  • Asynchronous job execution with retry support
  • Job scheduling, deferral, and concurrency management
  • Built-in CLI for task inspection and control
  • JSON-serializable payloads with automatic argument parsing
