How to run redis/resque on Heroku?

Question

Ruby on Rails

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. The question is the following: set up resque on a local server, both periodic tasks and instant background tasks are performed. Now I want the same thing to work on heroku. How to do this and is it free to host redis on heroku? Thank you in advance for your attention.

Answer 1

Redis is available as an additional service

Add an addon and set the URL for the redis. I still recommend using sidekiq instead of resque, it's faster and doesn't fork for every task
