Webhook consuming setup

Question

I want to consume a webhook and process the incomming data.

I've created an endpoint on my server that when it's called by the webhook will take the data and save it in a database.

Then I have another script that loops trough new entries in the database an process the data.

I'm running this script every hour with cron. That is working fine, but most of the time there are no entries, and when new entries enters I need to wait for an hour to have them processed.

Problem is that I can not have the endpoint process the data directly. In case I suddenly have 500 entries at once, the server can't process them fast enoug to answer the webhook server fast enough. So it needs to run in another script.

What is the best solution to this flow?
