Queue

The Queue plugin provides an easy-to-use interface for the php-enqueue project, which abstracts a wide range of queuing backends for CakePHP applications. Use it to move long-running work such as email delivery, notifications, or report generation out of the request cycle.

Queue jobs are regular PHP classes. They can receive constructor dependencies from your application's container and are processed by the included queue worker command.
