NT8 deployment on Microsoft azure Virtual Machine

[KacemRhaz]

Hello!
I have an account on Microsoft Azure, So i want to create a virtual machine on it where i can install ninjatrader8. My objective is to have NT8 always running, so i can enable my algoritmic strategy online and turn off my PC while my strategy is buying and selling online!
Is that possible! have anyone worked on that?

Hello KacemRhaz,

Thanks for your post.

Many users do consider using a Virtual Private Server to run NinjaTrader on to achieve lower latency and to have a more reliable connection that running NinjaTrader from their home PC. Many users consider this for running automated trading strategies as well.

We have Virtual Private Server services in our EcoSystem, and if those interest anyone in this thread, let us know and we can have a colleague share some more information on finding these services.

As for Microsoft Azure, we will leave the thread open for community feedback to share their experiences.

Some unaffiliated VPS services generate new virtual machines for their users, which can result in a new Machine ID being generated which is used to tie your machine to vendor products with our Vendor Licensing System. You may encounter issues with 3rd party AddOns when using an unaffiliated VPS.

We look forward to assisting.

Hello KacemRhaz,

This is Chris following up on behalf of Jim.

There are a handful of third-party VPS providers that would allow you to run NinjaTrader on a remote server. Here is a link to the NinjaTrader Ecosystem website with search results for third-party VPS providers. You can find more information about these companies by visiting their websites and contacting them directly:

NT8 deployment on Microsoft azure Virtual Machine

OR any other Virtual platform - so that a New PC/Laptop purchase is not needed.
Any simple (non-geek level ) help is highly appreciated.

Hi,

Has anyone migrated their NT8 to Azure who can share the experience?

I'm embarking on this route, and am at the stage of choosing whether to run in a VM or a Container Instance?

Thanks in advance,
