<p>Sure - you can run <a href="https://bitcointalk.org/?topic=841401" rel="nofollow">cpuminer-multi</a> on Azure or AWS, and it will CPU mine. You will need to find a pool to mine with.</p>

<p>Alternatively, if you want to solo mine, then you merely need to run a full Monero node, and from within <code>bitmonerod</code> you use the <code>start_mining</code> command. Details on the options you can pass to that command are available via the <code>help</code> command within <code>bitmonerod</code>.</p>

Sure - you can run [cpuminer-multi](https://bitcointalk.org/?topic=841401) on Azure or AWS, and it will CPU mine. You will need to find a pool to mine with.

Alternatively, if you want to solo mine, then you merely need to run a full Monero node, and from within `bitmonerod` you use the `start_mining` command. Details on the options you can pass to that command are available via the `help` command within `bitmonerod`.
