## Background Jobs
### Introduction
Background jobs are used to queue some tasks to be executed in the background. You may need background jobs for several reasons. Here are some examples:
- To perform **long-running tasks** without having the users wait. For example, a user presses a 'report' button to start a long-running reporting job. You add this job to the **queue** and send the report's result to your user via email when it's completed.
- To create **re-trying** and **persistent tasks** to **guarantee** that a code will be **successfully executed**. For example, you can send emails in a background job to overcome **temporary failures** and **guarantee** that it eventually will be sent. That way users do not wait while sending emails.
Background jobs are **persistent** that means they will be **re-tried** and **executed** later even if your application crashes.
ABP provides an **abstraction** module and **several implementations** for background jobs. It has a built-in/default implementation as well as Hangfire and RabbitMQ integrations.

### Creating a Background Job
A background job is a class that implements the `IBackgroundJob<TArgs>` interface or derives from the `BackgroundJob<TArgs>` class. `TArgs` is a simple plain C# class to store the job data.
An example background job to send emails in background:
