Why use Redis to send email messages?

Question

Laravel

Hello. There was a task to use queue for sending mails on a site. Until now, I've only used Redis when I was developing a real-time application with socket.io and everything was broadcast through Redis. There it was quite justified and I understood why it was necessary. And here I’m not catching up a bit, what is the advantage over the database driver. Only in reducing queries to the database and speed, or am I missing something else?

Answer 1

If the volume is small, then there is probably no point in adding another point of failure.

Answer 2

Taylor said that the database driver is for local development only. There WILL be problems with it in production.
Use radish or other drivers.
