You have work you need done. You want to send that work to some
worker (a cron job or never-ending loop in your description) to do the
work and get back an answer either directly or posted to some place
(the database). Seems to me like gearman and or AMQP would be ideal
solutions, and you can then have as many workers as you want and not
worry about contention of querying for the next job in the table which
inherently requires some form of locking.
