With Gearman you can run tasks in parallel, no matter where they should be performed.</p> </div> <div class="field-session-duration"> 45 minutes (+15 minutes Q&amp;A) </div> <div class="field-main-image"> <img class="imagefield imagefield-field_main_image" width="200" height="201" alt="" src="http://cph2010.drupal.org/sites/all/files/gearman_small.png?1276525210" /> </div> <p>A common scenario in web development is a delay in serving a page, due to<br /> the need of performing several unrelated operations in sequence.<br /> Sequential development is the norm in every major programming language,<br /> and, although parallel processing is possible, implementing it in your<br /> application is often painful and results in complex and debug unfriendly code.<br /> Enters Gearman, a distributed client/server framework, which can be easily<br /> integrated in any programming language, including SQL (through a MySQL User<br /> Defined Function), and makes parallel processing a trivial task.
