+# On Azure Virtual Machine - Cloud Shell
+
+{% hint style="info" %}
+The instructions have been tested on `Azure VM Linux (ubuntu 18.04)`
+{% endhint %}
+
+## Launch Azure Cloud Shell
+
+Launch cloud shell by going to [https://shell.azure.com/bash](https://shell.azure.com/bash)
+
+![](../.gitbook/assets/azure_shell_launch.png)
+
+## Create a new virtual machine
+
+#### Create resource group
+
+```bash
+# Inside Azure cloud shell
+rgName=airbyte-demo
+rgLocation=eastus
+az group create --name $rgName --location $rgLocation
+```
+![](../.gitbook/assets/azure_shell_create_rg.png)
+
+#### Create virtual machine
+
+```bash
+# Inside Azure cloud shell
+userName=byteuser
+vmName=airbyte
+dnsName=$(head -3 /dev/urandom | tr -dc a-z | cut -c -16)
+publicIp=$(az vm create --resource-group $rgName \
+  --name $vmName --image UbuntuLTS \
+  --admin-username $userName \
+  --public-ip-address-dns-name $dnsName \
+  --generate-ssh-keys --query 'publicIpAddress' -o json)
+echo $publicIp
+```
+
+This step will create a virtual machine and add a user account named `byteuser`. The ``--generate-ssh-keys`` option will generate a new ssh key and put it to the default key location (~/.ssh)
+
+**Note: Copy the ``publicIpAddress`` output, you will need this address later to connect from your workstation.**
+
+![](../.gitbook/assets/azure_shell_create_vm.png)
+
+#### Download SSH key
+
+```bash
+# Inside Azure cloud shell
+download ~/.ssh/id_rsa
+```
+Above command will generate download link and give you pop-up on right bottom side, click on `Click here to download your file.` to download private key. 
+Note: Save this file, you will need it to connect to your VM in [Connect to Airbyte](#connect-to-airbyte) step.
+
+![](../.gitbook/assets/azure_shell_download_ssh_key.png)
+
+#### Connect to virtual machine
+
+- Connect to virtual machine 
+
+```bash
+# Inside Azure cloud shell
+ssh $userName@$publicIp
+```
+
+## Install environment
+
+- Install `docker`
+  
+```bash
+# Inside Azure cloud shell
+sudo apt-get update -y
+sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl gnupg lsb-release -y
+curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg
+echo "deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
+sudo apt-get update
+sudo apt-get install docker-ce docker-ce-cli -y
+sudo usermod -a -G docker $USER
+```
+
+- Install `docker-compose`
+
+```bash
+# Inside Azure cloud shell
+sudo wget https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.26.2/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m) -O /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
+sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
+docker-compose --version
+```
+- Close the ssh connection to ensure the group modification is taken into account
+
+```bash
+# Inside Azure cloud shell
+logout
+```
+- Reconnect to virtual machine 
+
+```bash
+# Inside Azure cloud shell
+ssh $userName@$publicIp
+```
+
+## Install and Start Airbyte
+
+```bash
+# Inside Azure cloud shell
+mkdir airbyte && cd airbyte
+wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/airbytehq/airbyte/master/{.env,docker-compose.yaml}
+sudo docker-compose up -d
+```
+
+## Connect to Airbyte
+
+{% hint style="danger" %}
+For security reasons, we strongly recommend to not expose Airbyte on Internet available ports. Future versions will add support for SSL & Authentication.
+{% endhint %}
+
+{% hint style="info" %}
+This part assumes that you have access to a terminal on your workstation
+{% endhint %}
+
+- Create ssh tunnels for port 8000 (the static web server) and port 8001 (the api server)
+```bash
+# Inside your workstation terminal
+# 1. Replace $SSH_KEY with private key path downloaded from earlier steps
+# 2. Replace $INSTANCE_IP with publicIpAddress noted from earlier steps
+ssh -i $SSH_KEY -L 8000:localhost:8000 -L 8001:localhost:8001 -N -f byteuser@$INSTANCE_IP
+```
+- Just visit http://localhost:8000 in your browser and start moving some data!
+
+
