Dear friends.
Today I have tried this free VPS and just decided to share it with you as I looked around in BHW and didn't find this amazing method.
So, this is an Amazon 1-year free VPS service.
https://aws.amazon.com/free/
Right now I am using this service, so if you have any questions, I will be glad to discuss them with you.

So, what is a VPS?

VPS may sound complex for non-techie folks so we will try to explain the concept as simple as we can. Simply put, it’s like having a computer somewhere else; a virtual computer where you can download and install a bunch of software and store your files without consuming any storage space on your physical computer, the computer that you use.

You can have your virtual computer running all the time even when your physical computer is off, therefore, this is the best solution for those who don’t want to keep their computer running all day long as well as those who don’t have a Windows-based computer.
Some of you might know but most of you probably don’t, Amazon offers everybody that wants to test their services a free VPS for a year.

Read the full step by step instruction here.
 
Are they started giving free without Credit Card?
 
Thanks for you answer

I know for getting free need to give them CC, But i thought they started giving it now without CC.

Yes, you must provide your credit/debit card info. I have provided my card, which is always empty :)
 
Free tier has only 1gb ram isn't it? Last year tried it and lost my time...not very happy at all.

was very slow... maybe for testing purposes free package is doing fine.. for beginners like me was nice to see how this thing works but i would choose a paid plan if you asking me now.

Last year i've tested for two, maybe three weeks...a browser and a piece of software i needed to run 24/7...but the most open app was task manager
Please don't get me wrong...aws is great, you can have your instance ready in minutes...the free tier was not for me.
