Implementing Background Jobs in App engine Flex

[Amit Chavan]

We want to implement background jobs (either through celery or any other python supported lib) in App engine Flex environment. On googling we found that it's impossible to deploy celery like queues on App engine. GCP has service called Task queue for such scenario but it supports Standard environment of App engine. So how to implement this. Kindly help.

Hello Amit, 

If you want to use task queues in the Flexible Environment, a solution is already present: Cloud Tasks, a task queue service for App Engine flex and second generation run-times. The Cloud Tasks Beta page offers more practical insight.
