A simple router to consume messages from rabbitmq and push to beanstalkd and vice-versa. It can connect to a remote/local beanstalkd/rabbitmq based on the configuration.

• Beanstalkd provides a nice way of scheduling jobs (with delays, TTR semantics etc) while RabbitMQ provides a HA queuing system that is distributed, fault tolerant, high performance, and persistent store for job payloads.
• Combining the two, we can architect a system that puts job payloads on (single/multiple) rabbitQueues which provides an HA endpoint to pump jobs to. RabbitBeans listens on the rabbitQueues (which also provide a buffer to smooth the downstream throughput) and creates jobs on Beanstalkd (potentially multiple).
• In the reverse direction, it can also listen for ready jobs on Beanstalkd and route them to Rabbit queues.

• Provide a way to cancel jobs
• Post metrics
• Improve benchmark tests THIS IS STILL UNDER EARLY DEVELOPMENT - DO NOT USE IN PRODUCTION...
