Own server for photon unity networking

Apurva

Hello,

I'm creating multiplayer game. I want to use photon unity network classes for multiplayer. Is there anything possible so I can use my own server for it not photon server?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Apurva,

You can use PUN with Photon Cloud or your own self-hosted Photon Server.
You can't use PUN with a server other than Photon.

I'm using Microsoft Azure Server. So will it be possible to host PUN on it?

Hi @Apurva,

PUN is the client SDK. It's "Photon Unity Networking".
PUN connects to Photon Servers either as part of Photon Cloud or your own [self-hosted Photon Server](https://doc.photonengine.com/en-us/server/current/getting-started/photon-server-intro).
Yes, you can host Photon Server on Microsoft Azure.
We do not have a guide or documentation for this.
It should be easy to do so though.
