Ask HN: How to get free AWS, Azure, GCP credits?
4 points by smattiso on March 30, 2020 | hide | past | favorite | 5 comments
I have a startup working on a new platform/marketplace that, if successful, could grow to a very heavy traffic site. I have contacts within AMZN, MSFT, etc. but they are all developers and likely don't know anything about getting free startup credits. What's the best path forward to this?



Here's a list of software (SaaS, PaaS, IaaS, etc.) and other offerings that have free tiers for developers and startups: https://free-for.dev


For AWS if you're unfunded (bootstrapped) you can apply directly on https://aws.amazon.com/activate/

In the past I got some via a coworking space, which for some reason counted as accelerator, I think because they had mentors and training sessions. And years later via a startup conference.


My application got rejected :(


Thank you. Just submitted.


If I wanted to learn Azure, is there a free program where I can get limited credits while I learn?
