Run multiple jobs at a same time.

[veed76]

• Laravel Version: 7.0
• PHP Version: 7.2.5
• Database Driver & Version:MySQL & 5.7.26

Description:

Suppose I have 10 jobs in the jobs table and I have want to run these 10 jobs at a same time, so using the Laravel queue job is it possible to run multiple jobs at the same time in the background? and it's a good way to run multiple jobs at a same time?

QUEUE_CONNECTION=database

The 10 jobs are just, for example, there is a chance there will be 100,150, etc, job to run at a same time.

Otherwise, can anyone suggest me the good way?

You can start multiple queue workers, but for 100 instance you need a considerable amount of ram.

Also jobs are not running in the background but on different process(es) based on your workload you can start a few workers and it will handle them one after other. As long as your jobs are finished in your deadline and your queue isn't bottlenecked you should be good.

Moving this to discussions.

Some update about this?

[netpok]

Well, each worker handles one job at the time, if you want to handle more jobs simultaneously just start more workers. Also the last time I used database queue driver it was not very stable with more than few workers so personally I would use the redis driver.

@netpok Thanks for your recommendation, I might think that the database driver could be more stable. Can you tell me a little more about what you call stability? it would be of great use to me.

There were deadlock issues but the last time I used it was like in 5.6 so maybe it is fixed then.
