Today we’re releasing Oban for Python. Not an Oban client in Python. Not a pythonx wrapper embedded in Elixir. Nope, it’s a fully operational, PostgreSQL backed, typed, async, pythonic-as-we-could-muster implementation of Oban in Python…

Is there any ability to have Python and Elixir apps that shared a database process each other’s jobs?
I don’t have this scenario but more just curious
Edit: I also wanted to say congrats! I’m very happy for you two! This is awesome!

Thank you
for the sentiments and congrats!
Indeed, taken from the article
, in the interop section.
"It’s entirely possible to enqueue jobs from an Oban instance running in Elixir and run them in Python, or vice-versa!
In fact, recorded job output is stored in erlang term format, so you can retrieve output from jobs run in an entirely different platform. Since the PubSub notification format is identical, it’s even conceivable to pause/resume/scale queues running on heterogeneous nodes."

Just want to say congratulations!
Oban has been a main pillar for the Elixir applications I’ve worked on. It has proven itself to be extremely reliable and well thought. Glad to see it expanding to other ecosystems.
