In few minutes you could have had VM up and running in Azure  |

As it was said, getting machine in the old datacenter was challenging, instead of rushing all around, could have saved time. In the end the VM will be die anyway(or moved to the new datacenter, if stateless(no db involved) guess no need to move it again). |

In the end the VM will be die anyway(or moved to the new datacenter, if stateless(no db involved) guess no need to move it again). You didn't answer the question. You now have a VM running in Azure. What do you do with it? You seem to very knowledgeable in CCP:s infrastructure and I'm keen to learn.
Oh sorry, didn't want to gave that impression, I am not knowledgeable about the CCP infrastructure. Was only surprised that the comment was about being hard to find a space for a virtual machine in a datacenter.
In the end from a pure abstract perspective, a VM can be provisioned anywhere as long as you have a sized net link to connect it to the rest of the infrastructure with the right performances (yeah vpn tunnel and all that security stuff).
Anyway, yes all depend on the setup of the backend:
-> VM on CPP own machine -> reuse hardware == free (eventually)
-> had to get computing power from datacenter to locate the VM -> no longer free(and depend if you have to pay upfront or pay per use)
-> get vm on cloud -> not free but pay as you go with no upfront
i am keen to think about the first option considering the video released for the migration, but anyway in an emergency situation, can save time (time==$$) :)
all speculations indeed, not pretending to know
