Great project!

For a research project I need to run multiple android emulators in the cloud. So far, I tried to set it up on

• AWS EC2
  • using this container on an Ubuntu host
  • did not work because the emulator needs hardware acceleration

    emulator: CPU Acceleration: DISABLED
    emulator: CPU Acceleration status: Could not open /dev/kvm : Is a directory
    emulator: ERROR: x86 emulation currently requires hardware acceleration!
    Please ensure KVM is properly installed and usable.
    CPU acceleration status: Could not open /dev/kvm : Is a directory

• paperspace
  • I installed Android studio on a Windows host, since they have nested virtualization as an option if you contact support
  • it was very unstable and the machine always hangs itself up completely when I start the emulator.

This thread about nested virtualization suggests that I should try google cloud or azure.

Before looking into it, I would love to hear whether/how others run this docker in the cloud.

@Robin-des-Bois our deployment is not done to the cloud so if someone will use this in some public cloud - I'd love to hear back about the results also
