Google Cloud Tasks enables you to manage the execution of large numbers of distributed tasks. Cloud Tasks lets you create and dispatch tasks to worker services running on App Engine or any arbitrary HTTP endpoint, with automatic rate limiting, retry logic, and task deduplication. It provides a fully managed service for asynchronous task execution, allowing you to offload work from your main application and process it reliably in the background.
