Start a personal streaming server

Sometimes you need to spin up a cloud streaming session quickly—for testing, internal reviews, or short-notice demos. The Start Personal Streaming Server feature gives individual users a fast way to stream their VR app, without setup delays or admin support.

It’s designed for agility: no scheduling, no configuration, just one click to start streaming a ready-to-use virtual machine with your content.

What it does

The Start Personal Streaming Server button (available in the Portal web frontend) starts a temporary cloud rendering instance with:

  • A personal location

  • Pre-installed VR apps the user has access to

  • A 6-hour session limit

  • Instant launch (no scheduling)

How to start

  1. Open the Innoactive Portal Web Frontend

  2. Click on Streaming on top right corner

  3. Click Create streaming server
