Are you aware of any nice articles or open source projects for setting up the ability to dispatch webhooks events? I am currently thinking of using GCP PubSub for it and have it consumed by consumer (GCP Cloud functioon?) which does the network request, and requeues it back to the topic when its non 200 response. If it keeps failing 10 times it will get send to a dead letter queue.
Not off the top of my head, no. Your plan sounds good except for the "and requeues it back" part. Ideally you should just ignore failure (don't acknowledge/delete) and have the queue control plane decide when and how to retry—unless you have special logic (exponential backoff?) around that. If you do need to re-queue, just make sure you re-queue before you delete/ack the current message, otherwise you might lose jobs.
Is that something you would be interested in a hosted solution for? We've built the infrastructure to deal with incoming webhooks but we've been exploring the idea to also leverage it for dispatching. Turns out the same infrastructure works both ways!
