Cloud works on any system. Pick your case:

| System | How to turn it on |
|---|---|
| **Windows** | From the app: [Settings → Elyra Cloud](#on-windows-macos-and-linux-with-a-screen). |
| **macOS** | From the app: [Settings → Elyra Cloud](#on-windows-macos-and-linux-with-a-screen). |
| **Linux with a screen** | From the app: [Settings → Elyra Cloud](#on-windows-macos-and-linux-with-a-screen). |
| **Headless Linux** (server, cloud, SSH) | From the installer: [on a headless Linux server](#on-a-headless-linux-server). |

In every case the result is the same: your address `https://<your-username>-cloud.elyra.sh` now opens this
computer.

## Before you start

- An **Elyra account with an active license**.
- A **username** chosen in the account, at `app.elyra.sh/conta`: it forms the address.
- The computer **on and online** for as long as you want to use the Cloud. You do not need to open a port or
  configure DNS.

<!-- REMOVER-APOS-09-10-2026: regra do acesso antecipado Founder; apagar este bloco quando o Cloud abrir para toda licença ativa. -->

Until **October 9, 2026**, only the **Founder** plan can turn on Elyra Cloud.

## On Windows, macOS and Linux with a screen

Cloud is turned on in the app itself, on the computer where you already use Elyra. The path is the same on
all three systems.

1. Check that Elyra on this computer is **activated** with your license.
2. Open **Settings** and go to **Elyra Cloud**.
3. Under **Make this computer your Cloud**, click **Turn on** and confirm. If another computer or server was
   your Cloud, it stops being it.
4. The card shows **Starting…** and then **Up since** the time it came on, with your address and the
   **Copy** and **Open** buttons.

In version 0.0.17, the option is called **Serve from this computer** and the button is **Serve**.

While the Cloud is up, you keep using Elyra on this computer as usual: whoever signs in through the address
sees the same projects, terminals and cards. The app must **stay open**: quitting Elyra turns the Cloud off.

### So the computer does not sleep

If the computer goes to sleep, the Cloud goes offline until it wakes up. For a computer that will be your
Cloud all day:

- **Windows**: in **Settings → System → Power**, set sleep to **Never** while plugged in.
- **macOS**: in **System Settings → Battery → Options** (or **Energy Saver**, on desktop models), turn on
  **Prevent automatic sleeping when the display is off**.
- **Linux with a screen**: in the power settings of your environment (GNOME, KDE and others), turn off
  automatic suspend.

On a laptop, closing the lid usually suspends the computer, even with these options.

## On a headless Linux server

For a Linux machine with no monitor, such as a cloud server reached over SSH, Elyra runs as a system
service, with no window:

1. [Install](/docs/en/cloud/instalar/) with one command: `curl -fsSL https://app.elyra.sh/cloud/instalar.sh | sh`.
2. [Activate](/docs/en/cloud/ativar/) by approving, in your account, the code the terminal shows.

It supports Ubuntu 20.04+ and Debian 11+, on x64 or arm64, with systemd. Windows and macOS do not have this
headless mode: on them, Cloud is turned on from the app.

## Change which computer is the Cloud

An account has **one Cloud at a time**. To switch, turn the Cloud on in the other computer, by any of the
paths above: the account hands the address over to it, and the previous one stops being the Cloud. The
address stays the same.
