Is that possible to use our Virtual Machines instead of Batch Services in Data Factory?

Question

I am using Batch Services for Data Factory Custom Activity but I want to use separate my Virtual Machine instead of Batch Services.

{
"name": "AzureBatchLinkedService",
"properties": {
"type": "AzureBatch",
"typeProperties": {
 "accountName": "myazurebatchaccount",
 "batchUri": "https://westus.batch.azure.com",
 "accessKey": "<yourbatchaccountkey>",
 "poolName": "myazurebatchpool",
 "linkedServiceName": "AzureStorageLinkedService"
  }
 }
}

At the moment it's only possible to run custom activity on Azure Batch or on HDInsight (see documentation).

However, you Azure Batch Account is based on pool of virtual machines anyway. You can create Batch Account with pool which consists of only one VM - your predefined instance.

Follow Create Batch Account Documentation, but on 3rd step you need to select User Subscription pool allocation modes. That means that used VMs will belong to subscription, not to Batch Service.
