Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I built OxMQ because in Java enterprise architectures, we often face an unnecessary dilemma: pull in Kafka (massive operational overhead, ZK/KRaft clusters) or stick with sluggish database polling queues.
Node.js developers have had BullMQ for years—fast, Redis-backed, rock solid. With Java 21 Virtual Threads (Project Loom), Java can now handle concurrent Redis I/O with ultra-low latency and minimal footprint.
OxMQ delivers:
✨ 100% BullMQ wire protocol parity (Bull-Board UI works out-of-the-box)
⚡ Virtual Thread native worker execution (millions of concurrent tasks)
🔒 49 battle-tested atomic Lua scripts for zero duplicate processing
🎯 3-line Spring Boot starter & Quarkus support
📊 Full Prometheus & OpenTelemetry tracing
