Description
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](https://www.reddit.com/r/aws/comments/7twr36/can_ec2_support_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.
