Azure queue: find whether item is in queue

azure, azure-storage

Solution

Azure Queues are meant for async message passing, not searching. You should use an Azure Table or SQL Azure DB if you want indexing support.

Azure Queues will only let you peek the next message without dequeuing.

Problem

Is it possible to query an azure queue to find whether an item is somewhere in a specified queue (based on some key property)?
