IronMQ now in add-on catalog

We're excited to announce that you can now provision the IronMQ message queuing add-on to apps running on AppHarbor. IronMQ is built and run by the guys at Iron.io and they have lots of experiencing hosting great add-ons.

Iron.io has built a .NET wrapper for the IronMQ API, making using the service from .NET apps incredibly easy. Check out the AppHarbor knowledge base for info on how to configure the wrapper. Finally, we've created a simple application that uses IronMQ to pass tasks and results between an ASP.NET MVC frontend and an AppHarbor backgroundworker backend. You can use the same pattern in your AppHarbor-hosted applications to pass asynchronous tasks (like sending emails) to backgrounder-worker processes.

We're excited to be partnering with Iron.io and we think you'll find IronMQ to be a great addition to the AppHarbor add-on catalog.
