    Welcome to Hyrex

    Hyrex is the open-source COLD Task Framework for Postgres.

    With Hyrex, developers can build controllable, observable, scalable, and durable task-based apps. All you need is a Postgres database and some containerized workers.

    Your workloads become fully-horizontally scalable across any cloud setup.

    Durable

    You get a distributed, fault-tolerant cluster of workers that monitor one another and self-heal.
