Question 2

+4.5 marksOne correct option

A news platform wants to send a morning digest email to all subscribers every day at 7 AM. Sweta sets up the beat schedule, starts Redis and Celery Beat, and then claims: "The Worker is optional here. Beat handles the scheduling and the execution of the task, so we do not need a separate Worker process."
Is Sweta's claim correct? Choose the best answer.

  1. A
  2. B
  3. C

    No. Celery Beat is only a scheduler. At 7 AM, it pushes a task message into the Redis broker and stops there. Without a running Celery Worker to pick up that message, the digest email is never actually sent.
