Overview

Hatchet is an open source distributed task queue and background job engine for durable workflow orchestration. You define workflows and tasks in code with your language SDK, and Hatchet runs them across a fleet of workers with automatic retries, concurrency and rate limits, fan out and scheduling, then shows every run, worker, event and schedule in a modern web dashboard. Teams use it to run reliable background jobs, event driven pipelines and multi step AI and data workflows, owned inside their own cloud account rather than a hosted service.

Why the cloudimg image

cloudimg ships Hatchet hardened and fully patched on Ubuntu 24.04, with a bundled PostgreSQL and RabbitMQ on the same VM. Security is enforced from first boot: a unique administrator, database password, message broker password and encryption keyset are generated on each virtual machine, the default account and default secrets are never shipped, open sign up and tenant creation are disabled so the instance cannot be seized, and PostgreSQL and RabbitMQ are bound to the internal container network only. It comes with a paired deployment guide and 24/7 cloudimg support.

Common uses
