I want to host an R-shiny app on Windows Server platform on Azure VM and this R-Shiny app will retrieve data from MongoDB.
So far:
- I cannot install R-Shiny server because it doesn't support Windows platform
- It's an external cloud. So, I cannot run the app and access it via "ip_address:port_number". (Or can I?)
So, I am wondering if there is any other ways that allows me to host my Shiny app with MongoDB on Azure. I also would take security into account. I would eventually not want other people to be able to access my dashboard but myself or other people that I allow.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
