You get a $150 monthly credit for microsoft azure a month. While that is not anything to scoff at - a VM with 1 vCPU core & 1.75 GB ram is $45 / month.

My point is just make you fully evaluate long term consequences of locking yourself into a closed source ecosystem with very expensive servers (Azure and AWS are both guilty here.)
