Summary

In this short chapter, you learned the basic concepts of Azure Service Bus including queues, topics, SDK, and more advanced features like dead lettering, sessions, and transactions. There are still many things to learn: asynchronous messaging, Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP), and advanced transaction scenarios. In general, it is a great service for both simple and critical scenarios as it gives you enough flexibility to adjust it to most applications, and at the same time it is quite easy to learn how to get started. Remember, you can use the basic tier for the simplest use cases, which gives you a cheap and reliable solution, a much richer option than Azure Storage Queue. In the next chapter, we will focus on monitoring services with Azure Application Insights.
