Create a "background jobs" API built around Kakfa #121

Open brent-hoover opened 5 years ago

brent-hoover commented 5 years ago

Replace the current background jobs library with an "event-driven" one built around Kafka but with a simple API that doesn't require me to understand anything about Kakfa, doesn't require me to deploy a new topic and with an interface that I can monitor tasks status via the client.

We come across this need nearly constantly and every time it feels like we need to reinvent the wheel. Create something that's not going to be obsolete in 6mos. to a year
