Sorry DLQs make it easier to do those alerts where a human needs to look asap at something. Not sure they can be gotten rid of, but maybe you call them something else.


Inngest engineer here!

Agreed that alerting is important! We alert on job failures, plus we integrate with observability tools like Sentry.

For DLQs, you're right that they have value. We aren't killing DLQs but rather rethinking them with better ergonomics. Instead of having a dumping ground for unacked messages, we're developing a "replay" feature that lets you retry failed jobs over a period of time. Our planned replay feature will run failures in a separate queue, which can be cancelled at any time. The replay itself can be retried as well if there's still a problem
