Deploy Gatling Enterprise injectors on Azure
A Microsoft Azure Pool is a reference to the Azure account you can use to spawn injectors to run the simulation. Only Linux virtual machines are supported.
To configure the type of instances you want to spawn, you need to fill the form below:

- Team: Set if the pool is global or owned by a team
- Subscription ID: the Azure subscription you want to use, check this article to learn how to retrieve it
- Tenant ID: the Azure tenant you want to use
- Application ID: the id of the Azure application you want to authenticate with
- Client Secret: the key used to authenticate
- Region: the region where you want to spawn your instances
- Size: the size of the instances
- Network: the network configured on your Microsoft Azure account you want to use
- Subnet: the subnet you want to use
- Image or Image URL: the certified image or the url of the image you want to use for your instances.
You can use our certified images or the url of your custom VHD: the image should at least have JDK8 installed, a configured key pair without password and the port 22 & 9999 should be open, see the Azure documentation if you want to learn how to make your own image.
- Public Key: the public ssh key to connect to your instances
