By tjdett:

I don't think Celery limits the platforms available. There's Windows support, and I can't think of any obvious reason why you couldn't run it on any POSIX-compliant system. It's also possible to just leave it there and not use it. (Just don't run CeleryBeat or CeleryD.)

I have a MyTardis app which uses this support to run periodic tasks and schedule network requests.
