Windows Azure(四－3)：云上的MSMQ--Queue Storage

概述

      Queue Storage提供给我们一个云端的队列。可以用Queue Storage来进行进程间的相互通信（包括运行在不同机器上的进程之间的通信）。

使用场景

     在一个Web应用程序中，用户通过表单递交给服务器数据，服务器收到数据后将进行处理，而这一处理将花费很多时间。这种情况下，服务器端通过Queue Storage可以把用户递交的信息存储在队列中，后台再运行一个程序从队列中取得数据进行信息的处理。（说白就是队列机机制的使用场景，只不过现在是在云端的处理，同样使用RestAPI进行调用，可查看Queue 服务 API。）

Queue 服务API

Operation	Description
List Queues	Lists all queues under the given account.
Create Queue	Creates a new queue under the given account.
Delete Queue	Deletes a queue.
Get Queue Metadata	Returns queue properties, including user-defined metadata.
Set Queue Metadata	Sets user-defined metadata on the queue.
Put Message	Adds a message to the queue.
Get Messages	Retrieves a message from the queue and makes it invisible to other consumers.
Peek Messages	Retrieves a message from the front of the queue, without changing the message visibility.
Delete Message	Deletes a specified message from the queue.
Clear Messages	Clears all messages from the queue. Clears all messages from the queue.  Clear all messages from the queue.
