How to narrow down race condition in delayed job/mysql2?
I included this in the github issue but we had coverband induced log spam, it got fixed and suddenly we hit the bug. I did find this from someone with a similar issue but there was no conclusion.

How to run a really long task from a Rails web request
So how do we trigger such a long-running process from a Rails request? The first option that comes to mind is a background job run by some of the queuing back-ends such as Sidekiq, Resque or DelayedJob, possibly governed by ActiveJob. While this would surely work, the problem with all these solutions is that they usually have a limited number of workers available on the server and we didn’t want to potentially block other important background tasks for so long.

Delayed Job vs. Sidekiq: Which Is Better?
Several gems support job queues and background processing in the Rails world — Delayed Job and Sidekiq being the two most popular ones.
Rails 7 support only just got added https://github.com/collectiveidea/delayed_job/pull/1161

Why does rails have a tradition of queuing background jobs in a separate NoSQL store, when both the queueing controller and the job class tend to hammer the main database anyway?
Back in the day, before Sidekiq and such, we used Delayed Job https://github.com/collectiveidea/delayed_job

A quick look at background jobs in Ruby
There are a few of popular systems. A few need a database, such as Delayed::Job, while others prefer Redis, such as Resque and Sidekiq.

Schedule background jobs in Rails with Integromat
I always wad a fan of Sidekiq, but recently I wanted to remove redis as a dependency. I ended up going back to classic delayed_job. My reason for that was I also didn't want dependency with Postgres, as I like to use sqlite on development and Postgres on production. The best solution I've seen is Que, which works with Postgres. It is complete, has all the features you need.

Background Job Processing in Ruby without external libraries and dependencies
Ruby gets hammered a lot for its green threads and no real concurrency yet Ruby libraries such as Resque, Delayed Job and Sidekiq are some of the most popular choices to run background jobs in the industry. When you have a huge project and millions of requests and hundreds of thousands of operations to perform, reach out to one of these solutions which are feature complete and you don’t have to reinvent the wheel as its complex piece of software to implement and requires thousands of human hours. While they help you scale sometimes they are not what you are looking for or need as they are meant for a scale of 10000s of jobs per second and what you need is a background processing for few jobs that can be handled in memory without a dependency of a queue such as Redis. If you look at the benchmark numbers from Sidekiq they are for 100K jobs because that is the scale it is meant to be though one can use it for running a few hundred complex jobs as well where you require queue management and supervision.

Digital Ocean App Platform vs Heroku
Before we dive in, I wanted to go over my background real quick for context. I'm mostly a Rails developer professionally, and I am on the 'Infrastructure' team at work, so I integrate closely with Heroku and am pretty familiar with their product and offerings. Given my Rails background, this article will focus on deploying a web app with at least one background job process. For my hackathon app, I had a web process running Puma and a worker process running DelayedJob.
