Abstract
A method includes decoding, by at least one hardware processor, an enqueue request received from a data process of a database system. The enqueue request includes a task. The task is enqueued in an in-memory task queue. An enqueue acknowledgment is encoded for transmission to the data process responsive to the enqueue request. The task is persisted in a storage location associated with the in-memory task queue. Initiate a lease of the task to a worker node in response to a lease request received from the worker node. A dequeue request is received from the worker node where the dequeue request indicates completion of the task by the worker node. The task is dequeued from the in-memory task queue based on the dequeue request.
