Thanks for the information. But some of them seem a bit expensive.

well, DigitalOcean provides some credit in that pack.

Depending what you need, I've been happy with the lowest RamNode server, about $15/year.

maybe you might take a look at: https://cloudatcost.com/developer-cloud

This is not Cloud Server.

Please help to suggest.

Google has a free tier for Compute Engine. It's good enough for a light dev server or hosting personal stuff. That's what I've been using lately.

Thanks, will have a look later.

scaleway.com it's very cheap.
