Comment on The most important thing to understand about queues (2016)parent

Comments

I wonder which combination of HTTP reverse proxy (e.g. nginx, cloud load balancer) and application server (e.g. Python WSGI server) is best at using bounded queues and signaling backpressure (e.g. HTTP 503) rather than just letting requests pile up.

I guess that basically everything you'd consider for production use allows you to configure queue sizes and related behaviour however you fancy.
