Bernard is a multi-backend PHP library for creating background jobs that are processed later via queues and long-running worker processes. It supports many queue backends including Redis, Amazon SQS, Doctrine DBAL, RabbitMQ, and Beanstalkd (Pheanstalk).

Use cases

• run background jobs in php
• queue tasks for later processing
• offload slow work from web requests
• process jobs with redis or sqs backend
• build a worker process for php queues
• send emails asynchronously in php

When to choose

• you need a PHP queue abstraction over multiple backends like Redis, SQS, or RabbitMQ
• you want simple background job processing without a heavy framework dependency
• your project already uses Doctrine or Predis and wants queueing on top

When to avoid

• you need a full-featured job scheduler with retries, dashboards, and cron out of the box
• you are not on PHP
• you need actively developed software with frequent releases
