How to run Jupyter Notebooks in Cloud

 Hello all,

In this article, I explained on how to open and run Jupyter notebooks in Cloud/Server. As most of cloud machines prefer Ubuntu or other Linux operating systems, we may only be able to access virtual machine in cloud using command line interface (CLI). In that case, it would be a challenge to open Jupyter notebooks as we usually access it through a browser.

I would like to take an example of Azure VM for explaination but this would be valid for most of cloud platforms.

Login to VM

Use the following command to login to your VM thru ssh
ssh username@ipaddress
In case if you dont have a VM, you can create one by logging onto Azure Portal and following the steps mentioned in this Azure VM Documentation

Using TMUX

Tmux is very useful tool which will allow to run multiple terminal sessions within terminal and also let the code running even though you closed the terminal
Use tmux ls for list of open tmux sessions
Use tmux to create a new session
Use tmux attach to go to already opened session 
Please refer the following website for more commands

Open Jupyter Notebook in VM

While accessing VM through command prompt, we don't have a browser to open Jupyter notebook. So, We have to open Jupyter in no browser mode using following command 
jupyter notebook --no-browser --port 8888
Please note the token id generated from the url which looks like this
http://localhost:8888/token=8s3hdig3d3gd37gdi8hdqdgqi7q3gd38d39h33

Port Forwarding to Local

As we cannot open a jupyter notebook in VM,we forward the hosted jupyter port to our local by using the following command in your local machine.
ssh -N -f -L localhost:8888:localhost:8888 username@ipaddress
This will provide an access jupyter notebook inside our local machine.

Access Jupyter Notebook in Local

Now, Open one more command prompt window in your local machine where we can open the jupyter notebook by entering the url which is generated while opening the jupyter notebook in VM. For example, something like this
http://localhost:8888/token=8s3hdig3d3gd37gdi8hdqdgqi7q3gd38d39h33
