MSMQ on Azure Website

I have an existing ASP.NET Web Service (asmx), which I am trying to move into Azure. The logging component of the web service logs the messages in to MSMQ and there is a windows service which reads the message and update the database.

Is this possible using Azure Web APP (Websites) ? Will the web service code be able to create message queues at run time and could push messages into it?

MSMQ isn't available as an Azure service and you can't create a Windows service with App Service. What you can do is use a storage queue instead of MSMQ with minimal impact on your Web service code. Replace you Windows service with a Web Job that will be triggered when a new message is sent to the queue. You'll have to do a little refactoring but it shouldn't be that bad.

Here's a link to get you started: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/websites-dotnet-webjobs-sdk-get-started/
