Owner here.<p>dolater.io runs your background tasks in a scalable environment.<p>Wrap your workers in a docker image and queue tasks to it, dolater.io will process the queue as fast as possible.<p>It&#x27;s currently in a very early stage, I would like to get some feedback, opinions, know missing features you&#x27;d need, etc.<p>For now it works with hub.docker.com public images.<p>It&#x27;s not ready for production usage yet, but I&#x27;d like to get your feedback anyway as if you were considering it for your production environment.

This looks really cool, I can definitely think of a few use cases where a docker image might come in handy (vs a service like iron.io that just supporting a variety of languages on IronWorker). At the same time, having to build an image for small ad-hoc tasks might get a bit cumbersome.

The main problem I always have with remote background jobs is that I need to have complete environment working there also.. may be I have to decouple from my framework . I think the Docker Approach is what makes your offering different from others and interesting.<p>Good luck

How long will jobs take to start up? Is it seconds? (i.e. you have a queue, and machines ready to go)
