Job queues: how retries, idempotency, and DLQs work

Job queues decouple the producer from the consumer, but they hide hard problems: duplicate retries, non-idempotent jobs, and messages that never resolve. This article walks through each piece with code examples in BullMQ, SQS, and RabbitMQ.

quarkus-http-idempotency: Make Your APIs Safe to Retry with the Idempotency-Key Header

Picture paying online, the page hangs, you click again… and the familiar fear kicks in: “did they just charge me twice?”. That problem —operations running twice when the client retries— is one of the most expensive in payment systems and financial APIs. The open source…
