How Free cloud credits are utilized while in learning?
While Microsoft used to offer student passes with 100$ credit, valid for month, I source for for about paying lower $ to a person, use it for my learning practices. Now I increase my cloud reach , look beyond, while what I ask may not be valid for a reason.
Learning a cloud platforms helps me to do consulting, train students, be a reference to recommend the platform to people/business who ask opinion, I myself don't host any service or sell any system. I am sure, as many in same situation especially the one who run survival with freelance like me.
Does procuring Virtual Credit card and SMS numbers help to get the free trial? We know that free trial does not promote 100% resource utilization, they keep us in limit, a win-win for both. Approaching sales team often cause ignorant, many cloud vendors not even respond to my sincere request to have offer or paid trial plan with minimal cost to teach 'their' technologies to my students who look for jobs.
If this question does not fit into LET, remove the post, don't ban me, I don't want to scam, just concerned about being freelancer, survival in technology changes around cloud, platforms etc, spending money on them keep me knowledgeable would burn deep in my packets. It may be capitalist vs labor struggle, do not ban me sincerely.
