Why do we need to use rabbitmq

Question

Why do we need RabbitMQ when we have a more powerful network framework in Python called Twisted. I am trying to understand the reason why someone would want to use RabbitMQ.

Answer 1

RabbitMQ works on message queueing technologies like AMQP which helps keep things clean and latency-free.

And the best scenario to make use of RabbitMQ is for background processing of data which can take more time to be processed and cannot be served over HTTP. For example, if you want to download a report from your web app. And that report generation takes like 15-20 mins to be processed and get downloaded. Then in that case you should be pushing the download request to the RabbitMQ queue and then you should be expecting that report to be delivered to you via email or notification.
