Hello Gkr, Yes, multiple workers can run at the same time. People like delayed job and resque, though I'm sure there are other options out there as well.
The processes can access external ports. You may have to have a paid account for that (credit card on file). One thing to keep in mind, this is running on ec2. So most of the ip addresses are in spam black lists for smtp. Don't think pop has the same constraint. So if you are sending out email use send grid, amazon's simple mail service, or another. —Keenan On Wednesday, March 28, 2012 at 2:37 AM, gkr wrote: > Hi, > > Is it allowed to make network connection to external server (ex.pop3) > from worker job(Rails3 app) ? > > If yes can the job run in parallel because adding more worker will > which I guess make the jobs to connect to same server IP/Port from > different worker, Is that make connection conflicts ? > > Thanks > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Heroku" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected] > (mailto:[email protected]). > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected] > (mailto:[email protected]). > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/heroku?hl=en. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Heroku" group.
