Asynchronous Handling and Scheduling

Asynchronous PHP

Works with: Laravel, Symfony, and Standalone PHP

The Problem

You added async processing, but now you can't tell which messages are stuck, which failed silently, and which will retry forever. Going async required touching every handler — adding queue configuration, serialization logic, and retry strategies individually.

How Ecotone Solves It

Ecotone makes any handler async with a single #[Asynchronous] attribute. Retries, error handling, and dead letter are configured at the channel level And switch between synchronous and asynchronous execution without changing your business code.
