Any way to run a "dedicated" Minecraft: EE world at the moment?

Hello,

I've gone through several threads in this community asking about the potential to set up dedicated servers for Minecraft: EE, but the most current posts I see are from 3 months ago. I'm wondering if there's been any update or a roadmap posted that gives an estimate when we'll be able to run a dedicated server (whether that be on a dedicated machine or a process similar to the Azure pilot program from 7 months ago).

If there is no update in sight, I'm wondering if someone has suggestions for a workaround in the meantime where a game could be run perpetually without the use of a server. I've read older posts suggesting that an educator could have a game run on a dedicated machine, with other software running in the background to keep the game awake; I'm hoping there's a more elegant solution available. I read about this on a thread I'll link here: https://minecrafteducation.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360022586592-Minecraft-EE-server 

If anyone has any information they can share, it would be greatly appreciated!

  Hello Matt Douglas,

  Using a dedicated machine with additional software running is probably the best option at this point as we are not currently compatible with server software.
