Jesque (https://github.com/gresrun/jesque) is a Java distributed task queue library. It is a Java port of the Resque library (https://github.com/defunkt/resque), which is described like this on its GitHub page:

Resque (pronounced like "rescue") is a Redis-backed library for creating background jobs, placing those jobs on multiple queues, and processing them later."
