In Microsoft Azure, under the service bus, you can see activity graphs for different queues / topics, etc.
The graph shows various lines, such as incoming messages, outgoing messages, successful requests, etc.
What is a request? And what is a message?
Requests seem to be constantly met and often significantly larger than the number of messages (by topic). Despite the fact that the number of servers waiting for the queue remains unchanged - sometimes the number of requests increases sharply, without seeing any changes in the number of messages.
