Azure Requirements

To run your R code across a cluster in Azure, we'll need to get keys and account information.

Setup Azure Account

First, set up your Azure Account (Get started for free!)

Once you have an Azure account, you'll need to create the following two services in the Azure portal: - Azure Batch Account (Create an Azure Batch Account in the Portal) - Azure Storage Account (this can be created with the Batch Account)

Get Keys and Account Information

For your Azure Batch Account, we need to get: - Batch Account Name - Batch Account URL - Batch Account Access Key

This information can be found in the Azure Portal inside your Batch Account:

For your Azure Storage Account, we need to get: - Storage Account Name - Storage Account Access Key

This information can be found in the Azure Portal inside your Azure Storage Account:

Keep track of the above keys and account information as it will be used to connect your R session with Azure.
