What Azure Storage Queues are. And I like to describe them as, you know, a simpler messaging service that is designed for basic communication needs. And, when I say simpler, I'm comparing this with Service Bus. But this still provides, you know, reliable queue-based mechanisms that can store, retrieve messages. They are also scalable. So, it supports, you know, massive scaling for large workloads. They are low-cost. Again, comparing with Service Bus. Way cheaper than Service Bus. So, they are super cost-effective when we have those simpler messaging scenarios that we don't need all the features that you can find on Service Bus. So, there's basic messaging support. So, it provides a straightforward queue with no advanced features whatsoever. In terms of use cases, I like to say, you know, simpler messaging between components of an application, log processing to do batch processing, you know, temporary storage of messages for asynchronous processing. So, there's a lot of use cases where…
