What is perform_async in sidekiq

Question

I want to know about perform_async in sidekiq. As I could not found any documentation on this while everyone is using this.

So can someone please explain this to me or provide a resource.

`perform_async` just gets pushed to the queue right away – Thuy Nguyen Jun 01 '20 at 05:58 — Thuy Nguyen, Jun 01 '20 at 05:58

perform_async - a method that push your job with your params in the async queue (create a record in your async backend, Redis by default), to allow Sidekiq catch and perform it on the order of queue
