Azure integration with CI?

Right now we run Continua, both the server and Agent on an Azure VM.  Therefore we can only have one build running at a time.  I’d love to be able to create new agents on Azure so we can build concurrently.  The cost of the additional agents aren’t stopping me, but rather the amount of time required to do this.

Our build process is fairly complicated.  We have to install Visual Studio and several components (in the correct order).  So right now we have 

Machine A: Server + Agent

If we were to clone this and disable the ContinuaCI Server we would have 1 server and 2 agents

Machine B: Agent

Could we then keep cloning B for each additional agent?  So if we cloned B two more times we would have 1 server and 4 agents?

Machine A: Server + Agent

Machine B: Agent
Machine C: Agent
Machine D: Agent

This would all be done manually, however, I was wondering if Continua had any automatic processes for creating new agents on the fly.  

Hi Mike

We don’t have any automatic process for doing this, it’s certainly something I’d like to look at in the future (it won’t be any time soon).

Cloning machines should be fine provided they get new host names.
