GCP Cloud Tasks

Cloud Tasks is a fully managed asynchronous task queue. Enqueue work (HTTP requests), Cloud Tasks executes them on workers with automatic retries, backoff, rate limiting, and deduplication. Never block user requests again—enqueue the work, return immediately, process in the background. Example: User submits a form → app enqueues a "send confirmation email" task → returns 200 OK to user → Cloud Tasks sends email in the background.
