Introduction to Free Azure Services
Azure Space offers a wide range of free services to help users get started with Azure and explore its capabilities. These free services are divided into two main categories: services that are free up to a monthly limit and services that are free for the first 12 months of account creation. Regardless of the category, these free offerings provide users with valuable resources to test, develop, and leverage Azure's cloud services.
Types of Free Services Available
The free services available through Azure Space cover a variety of essential Azure tools. For instance, popular services like Azure Virtual Machines for both Windows and Linux are free for the first 12 months after creating an account. Additionally, Azure SQL Database, Azure Blob Storage, Azure Cosmos DB, Azure App Service, Azure Functions, and Azure Event Grid are always available for free use up to specified monthly amounts. Users can benefit from these free services for testing and development purposes without incurring any costs.
How to Start with Azure Free Services
To begin exploring the free Azure services offered by Azure Space, users can create a free Azure account. New customers can enjoy popular services for free for the first 12 months and access over 65 other services that are always free. Moreover, new users receive a $200 credit to utilize within the initial 30 days of account creation. This provides ample resources and flexibility for users to experiment with Azure's capabilities before committing to paid services.
Beyond Free Services: Pay-As-You-Go and Student Offerings
In addition to the free services, Azure Space offers pay-as-you-go pricing, allowing users to pay only for what they use beyond the monthly free amounts of services. This flexible pricing model requires no upfront commitment and allows users to cancel anytime. Furthermore, students can access free developer tools and receive a $100 credit without needing a credit card, using only an academic email address. These options provide diverse avenues for users to engage with Azure based on their specific needs and preferences.
Understanding Pricing and Support
For users looking to understand Azure pricing beyond the free offerings, Azure Space provides detailed pricing information for each product, along with cost management tools and price match guarantees. Users can utilize the pricing calculator to estimate their monthly costs based on the Azure products and services they plan to use. Additionally, support is readily available through sales specialists via call or chat, ensuring that users have assistance in navigating the Azure ecosystem effectively.
