hello everyone welcome to my net YouTube
0:16
channel Everybody knows we can get Azure
0:18
for free from Microsoft Azure website
0:22
which is trial account to give you 30
0:26
days
0:28
$200 for free to use So USD 200 credit
0:33
and also you always get the 55 plus
0:37
service always free once you have a
0:39
account those popular service free for
0:42
12 months So that's that standard thing
0:46
everybody knows But actually I'm going
0:48
to show you there's lots of other ways
0:51
to get free account from Azu such as you
0:54
can get a student account which you get
0:57
the
0:58
$100 free credit to use and renewable as
1:03
long as you have student account which
1:06
will be required to verify every year Of
1:10
course you also get those free services
1:14
from a free account Those always free
1:17
services and then one year free services
1:20
Those also going to be free And if you
1:24
have developer account you also can get
1:27
whatever credit you have based on your
1:30
Visual Studio subscription You also can
1:33
get those free accounts free services
1:35
and always free services
1:38
The fourth one is temporary Azu sandbox
1:41
subscription So I'm going to show
1:43
quickly So those website for a student
1:47
account here As long as you have student
1:50
email address you should be able to get
1:52
the free $100 as your credit every year
1:57
renewable If you do have Visual Studio
2:00
Professional or Enterprise
2:02
subscription then you qualify to set up
2:05
a free Microsoft 365 E5 developer
2:09
subscription It used to be free not only
2:13
for subscriber but the Microsoft changer
2:16
policy Now you have to have certain
2:19
Visual Studio subscription to get the
2:21
free account As long as you have this
2:24
Visual Studio subscription then you
2:28
should be able to get a free credit to
2:30
use those free Microsoft 365 E5
2:35
developer license Other than that this
2:39
is uh another way you can get some kind
2:41
of free license to use which is from
2:45
learn platform Microsoft learn platform
2:48
You can get a learn sandbox subscription
2:50
temporary for a couple hours while
2:52
you're doing the training I do have some
2:55
videos and post to show you those basic
2:59
things how you can get free account
3:02
Checking those videos and blog post
3:06
under this video to get more information
3:09
For this video I'm going to assuming you
3:11
already signed up a free Azure account
3:15
which requires you have a credit cards
3:17
your personal information to be verified
3:21
and then Microsoft going to give you
3:24
$200 US credit to use for the first 30
3:27
days After that you can use those
3:29
popular services for 12 months
3:34
But there's a recent changes regarding
3:37
IP address It used to be able to get the
3:42
basic school for the public IP free for
3:46
charge but Microsoft stopped that you
3:50
won't be able to create one from web and
3:54
starting from September 30 2025 basic
3:57
SQL public IP will be retired In this
4:00
video I also going to show you how you
4:01
can use command line to get this basic
4:05
screw public IP address So now let's
4:08
jump into
4:12
it So if you haven't azure account then
4:15
you can go
4:16
to microsoft.com web page and then you
4:20
can see try as you for free Um if you
4:23
already have a contract like me you will
4:25
probably get this message to say looks
4:27
like you already have a account and you
4:30
need to sign up for a pay as you go
4:32
subscription or use exist That's what I
4:34
going to do I'm going to use my existing
4:37
subscription to continue to use I
4:39
already have two free virtual machines
4:41
created before One for Linux one for
4:44
Windows Both virtual machines are free
4:48
to use as long as you meet the
4:50
criterials for those virtual machines
4:53
and you can free to use for 12 months
4:56
I'm going to show you how you can create
4:58
this one because it does have some small
5:01
tricks to adjust the settings else you
5:05
will get charged Now let's start create
5:08
a virtual machine That's the purpose of
5:10
this video to show you how to create a
5:13
real free virtual machines without any
5:20
charge Click on create a new virtual
5:24
machine So here you can go through all
5:27
those steps We're going to create a new
5:30
resource
5:31
group Okay Now give a
5:35
name Choose a region
5:38
Don't choose availability options here
5:41
We don't need that Free subscription
5:44
doesn't give you this option Security
5:47
type doesn't matter And then you need to
5:49
choose your image Here is the previous
5:51
image I chose Ubuntu server 244 LTS
5:55
version For the size you will see two
5:58
different size here Standard B2 ATS
6:01
standard B1S So this can and then you
6:04
can choose username password here
6:08
Since it's an unicus the default inbound
6:11
ports ssh22 has been selected So load
6:15
the first page and next disk It's also
6:19
very tricky for us to use free services
6:22
You may want to use a 64 gig
6:26
P6 This is only free eligible to use
6:31
It's a premium SSD SD local redundant
6:36
storage This page is the big one for you
6:41
If you didn't choose right then you will
6:43
get charged Public
6:46
IP You may notice there's a new public
6:49
IP but recent changes The basic public
6:54
IP address is not able to be created in
6:58
the web UI Basically you cannot create
7:00
the basic one So this is not basic It
7:05
became a standard one When you click
7:07
create the skew option is only for
7:11
standard It's no way you can change it
7:14
to basic here and it's static That means
7:18
the charger will be here almost $3 per
7:22
month for public IP You can choose
7:27
num review and create other settings
7:31
will be
7:32
default Let's create that We didn't
7:36
choose public IP here because there's no
7:40
free school for us to
7:42
choose Deployment succeeded Let's go to
7:48
resource Now you can see there's no
7:50
public IP address If there is no public
7:53
how we going to connect to it that's the
7:55
point This is free but we need to get a
7:58
public IP address to connect to it which
8:01
we're going to create it use as your
8:04
cloud shell command This is Azure cloud
8:07
shell command we're going to use So we
8:10
do need to tell in where to create it
8:14
We're going to create it in free Linux
8:17
This resource group we're going to name
8:20
it free Linux We're going to name it as
8:23
a PIP basic free
8:26
Linux So location west
8:30
US2 basic and this is dynamic Beautiful
8:34
So let's give it a
8:49
run It does gave us a
8:54
argument unrecognized So we're going to
8:56
delete this one since by default it will
9:00
generate IPv4 address for us
9:05
So it's recommended to create a
9:08
SKU standard but we still we don't want
9:12
to pay for it at least for
9:15
now Go to network
9:18
settings Click
9:21
configure IP config
9:26
one It's dynamic static internal IP
9:29
We're going to associate a public IP
9:32
address with
9:34
it We already create one here P IP basic
9:39
free Linux
9:41
Save Now we get the public IP address
9:45
here We can give it try to connect to
9:50
it
9:54
SSH Yes
9:58
put the password that we created before
10:01
during a
10:02
creation B we are
10:05
in and that public IP address
10:09
is let's take a look public IP
10:13
addresses look at this public IP address
10:16
we just
10:19
created west US basic
10:23
school IP address
10:26
That's the process how you can create
10:28
real free VMs in Azure free services for
10:33
12
10:39
months Here is another way you can
10:41
create those free VMs once you have free
10:46
service account You can go to the Azure
10:49
marketplace or if you don't know how to
10:51
go to there just search marketplace and
10:55
you will see this marketplace option
10:58
here Uh once you get in here just search
11:00
in the marketplace use a free
11:04
account virtual
11:07
machine So now you see this option here
11:11
Just click one of them You will see
11:14
three
11:15
different icons to show you free account
11:18
virtual machines It's the same You just
11:22
click on your friend So then you can
11:24
create the free account virtual machine
11:27
Basically this is already pre-built as
11:30
your template with configuration for the
11:33
easy
11:34
deployment Here I telling you what you
11:37
will get 750 hours standard B1 B2 ATS
11:40
and the B2Pds Linux virtual machine and
11:43
you can get 750 hours standard B1 B2 ATS
11:47
Windows virtual machine to P6 managed
11:51
discs not like previously we have to
11:54
choose and find out the the right size
11:58
of the VM and the right size of the
12:01
manager disk Here you can directly
12:04
create they will pick those for you
12:06
since they defined it already in the
12:08
template So let's create a new resource
12:12
group give a name Now you will see that
12:15
even the image dis they already gave you
12:17
the option they don't give you all
12:19
others This is already build here Those
12:22
are purposeuilt image which you can use
12:25
create this type of free VM to use The
12:28
core one doesn't have web So we may want
12:32
to stick this one or as you want So
12:34
those two will be your option here Um
12:38
also for the size you don't see hundreds
12:41
of size of uh for you to choose here
12:44
because the free service eligible size
12:46
is only two offline for the windows So
12:49
you can choose elo then you put the
12:51
username password The port will be 3389
12:55
since this is Windows typical 3389
12:58
remote desktop service port As you can
13:01
see they even don't give you the option
13:03
to choose a disk but that's fine with us
13:07
since this all the everything is been
13:11
created by
13:12
template We will create and take a look
13:16
deployment is in progress There's one
13:19
thing I want to notify you
13:22
is public IP address So this one So we
13:26
got a public IP address We didn't get
13:28
option to change or to set up a right
13:33
skew we want which is basic one So let's
13:37
see what they gave to us They gave us
13:44
dynamic It's basic here as well
13:48
So that's perfect So basically if we use
13:52
those marketplace to create our free VMs
13:57
you will get actually get the free
14:01
retiring soon public IP
14:04
address which is basic SQU and the
14:07
dynamic IP
14:09
address That's exactly what we want
14:12
Another thing you may want to check is
14:14
disk As you can see it's a premium SSD
14:18
LS disk type and the 64 gig by which is
14:24
P6 It's also free As you can see the
14:28
disk tier is P6 So that's how you can
14:31
get free VMs Two ways One is manual
14:35
creating You need to pick the right one
14:37
Another way is using marketplace
14:40
pre-built template to create one which
14:42
is much easier I hope this video gives
14:46
you some ideas how to get your real free
14:51
VMs with recent Microsoft changes their
14:55
policy for public IP skew If you get
