IceQ is an asynchronous task runner built on top of Kubernetes. It leverages Kubernetes to run containers with a predefined configuration based on events from RabbitMQ. IceQ SDK and its flexible architecture allow users to integrate it with their application and take full advantage of Kubernetes for running asynchronous workloads.

Both tasks definitions and their executions are tracked as Kubernetes custom resources as tasks.iceq.icetek.io and taskruns.iceq.icetek.io which allows for easy management and monitoring using kubectl and other tools used in day-to-day kubernetes operations.
