Job queuing library / software for Java

The premise is this: for asynchronous processing of a job, I have a home structure that:

  • Stores jobs in the database
  • It has a simple java api for creating additional tasks and processors for them.
  • Processing can be embedded in a web application or can work on its own on different machines to scale
  • Web interface for queue control and cancellation of queue elements

I would like to replace this with some ready-made library, because I would expect more reliability from them, and I do not want to support it. I investigated the problem and decided that you can use JMS for something like this. But I still have to create a simple java-API, calculate the runtime, where I would put the processing when I want to scale and build the monitoring interface. I feel that the only thing I get from JMS is that I will not need to do this with the database.

Is there anything similar to this, ready-made?

UPDATE

This is basically the setup I would like to do:

  • The web application runs in the Servlet container or application server
  • The web application uses the client api to create tasks.
  • X number of machines handle these jobs.
  • Monitoring and managing tasks from the user interface
