**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Joy M. | Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 27, 2021

**What do you like best about Azure Queue Storage?**

The overall options provided by azure for the different types of data that could be put into this storage type is just excellent, not only this but it can also pull data from other sources within the azure active directory like event hubs or service buses based on some custom triggers using function apps. Since Azure provides the product, the charges applied are for whatever you use, and the period you use it for and gives us transparency using tags to the resources we create every month the spendings occurring on each of them

**What do you dislike about Azure Queue Storage?**

The overall complexity of connecting different queue storage accounts with external APIs is a little complex as per my opinion, which makes the product to be used in more of an Enterprise Environment by a professional having an advanced level of knowledge about azure and storage accounts

**Recommendations to others considering Azure Queue Storage:**

I would strongly recommend this product to be used for enterprise solutions on the cloud with strict budgets being followed and the need for transparency for cost trends

**What problems is Azure Queue Storage solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We can use the azure queue storage to store data coming from the azure service bus into the queue whenever the subscriber that needs to process the data is not available and retry fetching the same data from the queue and push it after every one hour to the subscriber, so basically using the queue as a temporary placeholder for the unprocessed data to be stored at and using this we were able to know about the cost trends for different types and sizes of data being pushed into the system and reduce the same by conversion of data into another type

it only good for a small message storage system because its real-time capacity for messages is up to 64kb. you can not store messages larger than this size. if you are not managing it regularly then your messages will come randomly that's the only problem that I face up till now but you can find out your valuable message by filtering. Microsoft provides better security always.
