Want to learn Microsoft Azure without breaking the bank? You absolutely can! Forget about free trials requiring credit cards. Microsoft Learn Sandbox offers a completely free Azure environment specifically designed for learning. This isn’t the free Azure account with limited credit; this is a truly free resource for exploring Azure services and resources.
Dive into Azure with Microsoft Learn Sandbox
Microsoft Learn, a free online training platform, provides interactive learning paths for various Microsoft products, including Azure. Its integrated sandbox environment allows you to experiment with Azure without needing an Azure account. All you need is a free Microsoft account to sign in.
Activating Your Free Azure Sandbox
When you begin a Microsoft Learn module that requires Azure access, you’ll see an “Activate Sandbox” button. Clicking it initiates a simple verification process using your mobile phone number – no credit card required!
After verification, you’ll review and accept permissions to use Azure with your Microsoft account. That’s it! Your sandbox environment is ready.
Exploring the Azure Sandbox Environment
Each user receives 10 sandboxes per day, each lasting two hours. This provides ample time to complete exercises and explore. You have access to:
-
Bash: Execute commands directly within the Azure environment.
-
PowerShell: Leverage the power of PowerShell for Azure administration.
-
Azure Portal: Manage and monitor Azure resources through the familiar web interface.
Beyond the Exercises: Experiment and Learn
While the sandbox is designed for completing Microsoft Learn exercises, you’re encouraged to experiment. Create virtual machines, explore different services, and test your knowledge within the provided environment.
