Koyeb has announced the general availability of workers on its platform, enabling users to deploy high-performance workers from GitHub repositories to process background jobs globally. These workers support various frameworks like Python's Celery, Ruby's Sidekiq, and Node.js's Bull, offering up to 64 vCPU and 64GB of RAM per worker. This feature allows for handling asynchronous tasks, enhancing applications' performance by offloading long-running processes from web services and APIs. Users can deploy workers using Koyeb's control panel, CLI, or API, with the capability to scale across multiple regions, ensuring redundancy and improved performance. The platform offers flexible pricing, charging per second, with nano workers available for free on the Starter plan. Koyeb emphasizes ease of use with built-in continuous deployment, multi-region deployments, and global load balancing, promising efficient processing and scalability as user traffic increases.
