It would be ideal to inline all this logic with your upload process,
rather than run a separate daemon. You should have better
performance, and fewer chances for a race condition that way.
Process uploads to a temporary directory, then create a new second
temporary file,
delete the original, and move the converted file to a different directory
with an atomic rename() operation, to mark completion of the upload.

And don't tell the remote user the upload was successful until all
those operations succeeded.
