A method comprising: receiving (305, 310), by a computing device, a first request from a first user device for access to a virtual machine hosted on a virtual instance host; dedicating, by the computing device, a port to forward a cast of fresh instantiation of the virtual machine as a particular hosted virtual machine instance to the first user device; establishing (315, 320, 325), by the computing device, a first connection between the first user device and the particular hosted virtual machine instance through the dedicated port; receiving, by the computing device and from the virtual instance host, the cast of the virtual machine instance, and forwarding it to the first user device, over the first connection; receiving, by the computing device, a second request from a second user device for access to the particular hosted virtual machine instance; establishing, by the computing device and with the second user device, a second connection between the second user device and the particular hosted virtual machine instance through the dedicated port; receiving, by the computing device and from the second user device, instructions to execute an application on the particular hosted virtual machine instance; forwarding, by the computing device and to the virtual instance host, the instructions to the virtual instance host; executing, by virtual instance host, the instructions within the virtual machine instance, and capturing traffic generated by executing the instructions; uploading, by the virtual instance host, the captured traffic to a traffic database; storing and correlating, by the traffic database, the uploaded traffic data with an identification of the particular virtual machine instance; sending, by the traffic database, said traffic data to the first user device; displaying in real time, by the first user device, the traffic data combined with the cast of the virtual machine instance. receiving (305, 310), by a computing device, a first request from a first user device for access to a virtual machine hosted on a virtual instance host; dedicating, by the computing device, a port to forward a cast of fresh instantiation of the virtual machine as a particular hosted virtual machine instance to the first user device; establishing (315, 320, 325), by the computing device, a first connection between the first user device and the particular hosted virtual machine instance through the dedicated port; receiving, by the computing device and from the virtual instance host, the cast of the virtual machine instance, and forwarding it to the first user device, over the first connection; receiving, by the computing device, a second request from a second user device for access to the particular hosted virtual machine instance; establishing, by the computing device and with the second user device, a second connection between the second user device and the particular hosted virtual machine instance through the dedicated port; receiving, by the computing device and from the second user device, instructions to execute an application on the particular hosted virtual machine instance; forwarding, by the computing device and to the virtual instance host, the instructions to the virtual instance host; executing, by virtual instance host, the instructions within the virtual machine instance, and capturing traffic generated by executing the instructions; uploading, by the virtual instance host, the captured traffic to a traffic database; storing and correlating, by the traffic database, the uploaded traffic data with an identification of the particular virtual machine instance; sending, by the traffic database, said traffic data to the first user device; displaying in real time, by the first user device, the traffic data combined with the cast of the virtual machine instance.
