Hi, redis lock has own limitations and depending on your use case it may or may not be suitable [1]. If possible I would redefine problem and also considered: 1) create worker per specific resource type to avoid locking 2) optimistic locking 3) File system lock like in twisted, but not sure about performance and edge cases there 4) make operation on resource idempotent
