EffectIO Action Scheduler 3.9.3

Description:

Action Scheduler is a scalable, traceable job queue for background processing large sets of actions in WordPress, designed to be distributed in plugins. It works by triggering an action hook to run at some time in the future. Each hook can be scheduled with unique data so callbacks can perform operations on that data, and a hook can be set to run on one or more occasions.

The queue is battle tested at scale. Every month it processes millions of payments for WooCommerce Subscriptions, webhooks for WooCommerce, and emails and other events for a range of other plugins. Live sites have run queues in excess of 50,000 jobs and carried out resource intensive operations such as processing payments and creating orders at a sustained rate of over 10,000 per hour without negatively impacting normal site operations, including on infrastructure outside the control of the plugin author.

It suits any plugin that needs background processing, especially of large sets of tasks. Documentation on ActionScheduler.org includes a usage guide, a WP CLI guide, a complete API reference, an administration guide, and a guide to background processing at scale with the default WP Cron queue runner. Action Scheduler is developed and maintained by Automattic, with significant early development by Flightless, and pull requests are welcome on GitHub.
