Apalis — Rust Background Job & Task Processing Framework

Apalis is a robust, tower-native framework for processing background jobs, tasks, and messages in Rust. It provides durable job queues, real-time message consumption, retry logic, observability, and graceful shutdown — all built on the tower::Service trait, which means the entire tower middleware ecosystem is available. Apalis provides granular backend traits (Backend, TaskSink, Metrics, Expose) that let you depend only on the capabilities you actually use.
