Kue is a priority job queue backed by Redis for Node.js, featuring delayed jobs, parallel workload distribution, job event and progress pubsub, job TTL, optional retries with backoff, graceful shutdown, full-text search, RESTful JSON API, and a rich integrated UI. Current stable version is 0.11.6, released irregularly with maintenance updates. Key differentiators include a built-in UI for monitoring, priority system with named levels, and support for job progress tracking and logging. Compared to Bull or Bee-Queue, Kue offers more out-of-the-box UI features but is less actively maintained.
