Recently I opened account with Amazon Web Services, to test and work aws. Amazon offers 12 months of free subscription, which includes 750 hours per month of resources which means you can create a linux/windows micro instance and run it for whole month free of cost, for 12 months. But if you make 2 x micro instances then you can use them free for 15 days and you would be charge for hours beyond 750 hours.
Currently I’m running 1 x windows and 1 x linux, t2.micro instances in their Frankfurt region and they are running quite smoothly. Slow I’m exploring other available features in AWS like aws cli,their network options etc. I will be sharing everything time by time.
Happy to know you find this post useful. Cheers!
