A5Queueing Namespace
Description
Classes that support queueing services like AWS SQS, Azure StorageQueues and RabbitMQ.
Queue Services implement a simple pattern where Client processes can enqueue items to be processed by a worker.
Queues are first in - first out, so the item that has been in the queue the longest gets dequeued first.

Robust Queues with Many Workers
Dequeueing moves items to an timeout list, where they will stay until the Worker tells the queue that the item completed, or the Worker requests that the item be rescheduled, or the timeout was hit.
This ensures that items don't get lost if for some reason the Worker process stops before the item is processed.
Rescheduling Items
Rescheduling items occurs automatically if the Worker doesn't handle the item in the allotted time, But Items can be rescheduled explicitly as well.
