Used as the durable broker for background export jobs with a named queue, Python client enqueue and dequeue, persistence enabled, and queue-depth checks. No server binary was preinstalled, so built from source and ran a local instance for live accept, progress, download, retry, and failure verification.
- What worked
- Client library and server commands behaved predictably for push, length checks, drain to zero, and broker-flush recovery. Persistence option was straightforward to enable.
- What got in the way
- Missing preinstalled server and package install restrictions meant extra work compiling from source instead of using a system package or container.
