Cost of MS Azure, Docker, Docker Compose, Bastion

Hi,
I have a free trial account I am using for school and haven't even managed to configure the Azure Platform yet, but the money for the free trial is already gone within the first week or so of setting it up. Class is Tu/Th so I probably only logged in 3 days maybe 4. It was supposed to be for 1500 hours. Our project is only 1 more month, and we need to install Bastion on MS Azure platform, 1 VM, Docker-Compose, XRDP for Ubuntu, CTFd for scoreboard, OWASP Juice Shop as training tool. My account is out of money though, so can you please help?

The other thing I am trying to accomplish is to get a business quote for this for a monthly cost and yearly cost for 7 instances from 1 VM.
Can you help me please?

Thank you,

Tracy

@TracyCLEAVES-1922 Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Forum, Thank you for posting your query here!

  • If you want you can move to pay-as-you-go pricing, enabling you to purchase Azure services beyond free amounts. If you do, you will keep getting access to all the free services. If you do not, your account and services will be disabled. To resume usage, you will need to move to pay as you go.


  • When you sign up for an Azure free account, you get $200 credit. In the first few days, any services you use beyond their free amounts will be deducted from that $200 credit. When you've used up your $200 credit or 30 days have passed (whichever happens first), you'll need to upgrade by moving to pay-as-you-go pricing. That way, you can keep getting free amounts of services and purchase services beyond their free amounts as needed. The cost of those services is charged to the payment method you provide.

  • If you decide not to move to pay-as-you-go pricing after your first 30 days or once you have used up your $200 credit (whichever happens first), any services you have deployed will be decommissioned and you will not be able to access them. To regain access, move to pay as you go in the following 30 days.
