🔍 Problem Statement
Description
Introduce a background job system for operations that should not block API requests. This ensures scalability, reliability, and smooth user experience when handling blockchain-related tasks.
Jobs
- Blockchain transaction monitoring — track confirmations and status updates asynchronously.
- Notification processing — send real-time alerts without blocking API calls.
- Contract synchronization — keep off-chain database in sync with on-chain state.
- Deadline checks — monitor contract/milestone deadlines and trigger events.
Tasks
- Implement job queue system (e.g., BullMQ, Celery, or custom worker pool).
- Define job lifecycle — queued → processing → completed → failed.
- Add retry mechanism — automatically retry failed jobs with exponential backoff.
- Prevent duplicate processing — enforce idempotency checks for queued jobs.
- Track job status — expose API/DB records for monitoring job progress.
- Error logging — capture and store errors for debugging and alerting.
- Scalability support — allow horizontal scaling of workers.
Acceptance Criteria
- ✅ Retry failed jobs — jobs automatically retried with configurable limits.
- ✅ Prevent duplicate processing — same job cannot be executed twice.
- ✅ Job status tracking — developers can query job state (pending, running, failed, completed).
- ✅ Error logging included — failures are recorded with stack trace and metadata.
- ✅ Non-blocking API requests — blockchain operations run asynchronously in background.
- ✅ Scalable architecture — queue can handle high throughput reliably.
📈 Expected Impact
High — Would significantly improve user experience
