I'm curious as to what people are using for workers/queues. We're currently 
using storm, but im interested in evaluating alternatives.

Things I like about storm:
* Upload a jar and it automatically distributes the code to all worker 
nodes.
* Easy to write/reuse topologies without horribly distorting my code.
* Easy to visualize data as it flows through multiple queues.
* Easy to do fail/retry.

Things I don't like about storm:
* Can be somewhat flaky when performing tests, things fail/succeed in 
unpredictable ways but work in production or vice versa.
* Can't distinguish between failure (exception) and timeout.
* Must dedicate resources full time from a limited worker pool even through 
that queue is only used sporadicly.
* Can't link storm directly which means I need to 
maintain separate projects.
