Get Started with This Ready-To-Go Azure Solution 

This readymade configuration management rule on linux distributions offered by Apps4Rent takes away all the complexities in integration to Azure. All you need to do is just download the custom-built image and you are ready to go.

If you only plan to do build from specific machine, you can grant that machine exclusive permission to connect to the Ant remotely with the following command. Make sure to replace remote_IP_address with the actual IP address of the machine you plan to connect with: sudo ufw allow from remote_IP_address to any port 3306.

Alternatively, you can allow connections to your Ant from any IP address with the following command: sudo ufw allow 3306.

Warning: This command will enable anyone to access your Application. Do not run it if your Ant holds any sensitive data.
