No payment card or automatic sleep on the Free plan, but resources are shared and capped at 0.25 vCPU, 128 MB RAM, 250 MB disk and 10 Mbit/s. At the 100 GB monthly account transfer limit, apps stop until the next month or a plan upgrade. No independent uptime guarantee; not a dedicated VPS.

A Free web service spins down after 15 minutes without inbound HTTP or WebSocket traffic; waking may take about a minute. Its local filesystem is ephemeral and no persistent disk is available. Excess bandwidth/build minutes can be billed if a payment method is on file; otherwise services or builds are suspended. Not for production.

Not available as a free signup for new users: Koyeb's February 17, 2026 announcement requires new registrations to choose Pro or another paid plan and provide a payment method. Existing Starter organizations retain their free plan; do not treat this as a new-user free tier. Paid plan subscription/overage charges apply; instance regions, scale-to-zero and persistent-volume restrictions still apply.

Railway Free is $0/month; its $1 recurring credit does not roll over. New users initially receive a one-time $5 trial grant that expires after 30 days or when depleted; trial accounts can have restricted outbound networking until verification. Trial stateful volumes may be deleted 30 days after credit expiry. Monitor resource usage and billing before upgrading.

Full published Free allowances require organization verification with a credit card; unverified organizations receive restricted Free limits. Apps are paused when request, egress, CPU or memory limits are exhausted until the billing cycle resets. Pro/Builder charge for overages; this is new Deno Deploy, not retired Deploy Classic (sunset July 20, 2026). Commercial eligibility should be verified with Deno.

Free has a fixed $0 spend limit, requires no credit card and never bills usage overages. If ANY monthly request, provisioned-memory, active-CPU or outbound-bandwidth allowance is exceeded, the workspace's apps pause until the next month or a plan upgrade; do not mistake a traffic spike for billable overage. An idle app scales to zero. Starter and higher tiers bill memory, CPU and outbound bandwidth from the first unit, plus requests beyond their included quotas; paid spend limits must be configured separately. TypeScript hosting (Node.js, Bun, Next.js).

Free includes one database, one bucket and two functions per project; projects pause after one week of inactivity. Backups, extra resources and production-oriented features require paid tiers; do not mistake the $10 Pro compute credit for Free recurring usage.

Free vals are public (no private vals), each run has a one-minute wall-clock timeout and logs are retained for three days. Custom domains, external email recipients, 1-minute cron schedules and longer runtimes require paid Pro; ongoing Free is not a short-term trial.

Standard Free for NEW signups is one server, not the older two-slot allocation. The provider explicitly states existing accounts keep their previously assigned conditions; this does not make the current one-server Free plan existing-users-only. Capacity, fair-use and beta availability rules apply; 24/7 is not an uptime SLA. Backups are subject to assigned plan limits and provider FAQ says automatic age-based deletion is not currently enabled; keep independent backups. Paid resources are separate. Commercial-use permission remains unconfirmed.

No guaranteed service level; one subscription covers every region, but phone/SMS verification is required once per account before dashboard/API access. Exceeding any free resource threshold makes the full workspace capacity billable, not just the excess; a payment method is required to deploy paid resources. Optional managed backups cost extra; commercial-use and idle-expiry terms should be confirmed.

No custom domain on Starter, only belmo.io subdomain; commercial terms unconfirmed.

Website hosting only; not a general-purpose VPS. Sites must receive occasional visits to remain active. No bulk mail, file distribution, or hosting resale; resource limits and backup responsibility apply.

Free web app uses a pythonanywhere.com subdomain; restricted outbound HTTP(S) allowlist; no SSH, scheduled tasks or MySQL for new accounts. Renew the web app monthly. No paid-tier features included.

One free account per user; outbound connections and hotlinking disabled; 15 MB file upload limit, 25.000 inodes, restricted file types. Free hosting renews annually on human login and may be disabled for inactivity; provider recommends paid hosting for business websites.

Apps sleep after 30 minutes idle and wake on browser visits; webhooks/scheduled tasks cannot reliably wake them. Free excludes custom domains, search indexing and app-file backups. Background workers stop after 2 days without account activity. Provider may end Free with 14 days notice during startup phase through 31 March 2027; explicit Free commercial-use permission is unconfirmed.

Free hosting is intended for personal sites and experiments. No uptime SLA; high resource use, bulk email, proxy services and download/file-sharing hosting are prohibited. Three free accounts maximum per person; users must maintain their own backups. Commercial-use eligibility is not explicit.

Requires your own server/VPS and payment for infrastructure, storage, network and third-party services. Managed Coolify Cloud is paid; Apache-2.0 license applies to self-hosted software.

Not free managed hosting: supply and pay for Linux server, Docker, persistent volumes, networking, TLS, backups and operations. Core deployment is managed with CLI/SSH; plugins, hosting and connected services may have separate requirements or costs.

You provide and secure your own server, SSH access, Python, nginx and uWSGI; compute, bandwidth, storage, DNS and TLS operations are not included. Best suited to small self-managed deployments.

Requires your own Kubernetes infrastructure, networking, storage and operational maintenance; managed-cloud resources and third-party add-ons may cost money. License notices and third-party dependency terms apply.

Requires a Kubernetes cluster and your own compute, storage, networking and maintenance. GPL-3.0 obligations apply when redistributing modified software; external add-ons and cloud infrastructure can incur charges.

Provide and pay for VPS/bare-metal resources, storage, backups, domains and networking. Managed Dokploy Cloud is paid after a trial; enterprise features under proprietary/ use a separate paid source-available license. Only the open-source core is covered.

Requires Kubernetes and operational resources for control, data, CI and observability planes; external cloud services and compute are not included.

Requires your own Kubernetes cluster, networking and deployment infrastructure; this is a platform controller, not a free managed hosting account.

You supply the machine/VPS, storage, network and domain; no managed cloud hosting or SLA. Individual packaged apps have their own licenses and may impose separate commercial restrictions; AGPL source-sharing obligations apply when relevant.

Free Johnny registrations open only in limited capacity/time windows and may be unavailable when full; not guaranteed immediately. Heavy resource use can be suspended. Business hosting is restricted to micro-businesses under the provider's March 2026 terms; larger businesses must upgrade. Tommy requires a donation and is not this free tier.

Requires your own server, Docker/Swarm, domain and infrastructure; these costs are not included. The CapRover license appendix requires modifications of free features to remain free/open-source and restricts redistribution of paid versions; paid hosted features are separate.

Not a free hosted PaaS: requires your own Docker-capable servers, SSH access, registry and infrastructure, which may cost money. App/runtime and third-party services are billed separately.

CasaOS is a self-managed software platform, not a free cloud server. You supply and maintain Linux hardware, Docker, disks, networking and electricity; individual apps may have their own licensing and costs.

Portainer explicitly positions Community Edition for homelabs, personal projects and non-production environments, with no support, SLA or guaranteed security fixes. Business-critical production should use Business Edition. You supply and pay for infrastructure.

For testing and hobby projects, not production workloads. Beyond sandbox resources, usage is billed; BYOC provider costs are separate. Official pricing currently says no card needed but an older billing help page says a payment method is required for all plans, so card requirement needs confirmation.

Requires WebAssembly/Spin deployment; Starter is an ongoing open-beta free tier with no SLA. Paid Growth raises limits; custom domains may require paid tier and card/commercial terms are not explicitly confirmed.

Shared hosting subject to provider terms and resource limits; provider may suspend accounts that do not respond to notifications for an extended period. Domain registration is separate; commercial-use eligibility is not explicitly confirmed.

Self-managed Java runtime, server, security updates and TLS setup required; infrastructure and third-party services are not free.

You supply and operate compute, disks, cluster networking, TLS, upgrades, backups and monitoring. Public-cloud instances, load balancers, storage and commercial support are billed separately; this is not a free managed Kubernetes hosting plan. Follow Apache-2.0 notice obligations.

Shared hosting is subject to provider resource/fair-use restrictions, possible account suspension and PHP/MySQL runtime limits; advertised unlimited transfer is not a dedicated compute or VPS allowance. Verify SSL, backups, uptime and acceptable-use terms before production use.

Shared-hosting fair-use and account resource limits still apply; unlimited bandwidth is not guaranteed dedicated capacity. Official pages disagree on supported PHP/MySQL versions and disk quotas, so confirm actual account limits and security-supported runtimes before deployment. No root/VPS access included.

Not a free VPS or root server. Terms restrict accounts to website/email/repository hosting; VPN, proxy, tunneling and resale are prohibited. Terms state accounts without a proper panel/SSH login for 90 days may be deleted, and backups are not guaranteed. Resource abuse may trigger suspension; commercial website eligibility and payment verification require checking.

Free public web address sleeps when idle; daily traffic cap and outbound firewall restrictions apply. No free managed database or public TCP/UDP port; email verification and activity conditions apply. Free-plan commercial use is not explicitly confirmed.

OKD does not include free virtual machines, Kubernetes nodes, load balancers, storage, DNS, or enterprise support. Some bundled components have separate open-source licenses; operating and upgrading a cluster requires infrastructure and expertise.

Free app sleeps when idle, causing cold starts; its 1 GB container disk is ephemeral across deployments. Managed PostgreSQL, Valkey, persistent volumes, paid replicas and always-on compute cost extra. One-time signup credits are separate from the permanent Free app. Commercial-use permissions are not explicit in public Free-plan documentation; check provider terms.

Bundar only hosts the deployment control plane: you must supply and pay for your own server, compute, network, domains and storage. Builds and apps run on your infrastructure via SSH. The Free plan is marketed for side projects/experiments; commercial production eligibility is not explicitly guaranteed and must be checked with provider.

Requires a self-operated supported Debian/Ubuntu server with root access, bandwidth, domains, backups and security maintenance; VPS and infrastructure are not included. GPLv3 obligations apply. HestiaCP name/logo have trademark restrictions on resale or rebranding; this is not a free hosted website plan.

This is free software, not vendor-hosted free application compute. Review the installer and sandbox/security configuration before production use.

Requires your own compatible Linux host(s), storage, networking and cluster operations; add-ons and external cloud resources may incur infrastructure costs. Commercial support and managed Kubernetes services are separate.

Operate your own Linux nodes, network, persistent volumes, backups, security updates and monitoring; cloud VMs, storage and load balancers may be billed. K3s is a Kubernetes distribution, not a free managed cluster.

Source-available under Apache-2.0 with Commons Clause 1.0 AND an Anti Tampering Clause, not unrestricted open source. Selling Cosmos, derivatives or a Cosmos-based SaaS/PaaS is prohibited; upstream permits hosting a monetized business website if the business is not selling Cosmos features. Do not bypass licensing/paywall restrictions. Requires user-funded server, Docker socket privileges, storage, network and secure operations; review license terms for any commercial deployment or redistribution.

Does not provide free VPS, compute, GPUs, storage, domains or AI inference; you supply and secure your own servers and Docker infrastructure. Kubeara Cloud is a distinct hosted control-plane offer with a separate one-server free tier; do not confuse it with this self-hosted edition. Enterprise SSO, LDAP, SLA and priority support are separate.

Requires user-operated Linux servers and Docker; VPS, bandwidth, domains, storage, registries and operational costs are separate. No provider-hosted compute allowance. Software is pre-1.0: single-server setup is the more tested path, while multi-node support remains beta.

Runs on your own Linux server with Docker; server, electricity, storage, networking, domains and third-party apps may cost money. GPL-3.0 obligations apply when distributing modified software; volunteer-maintained without guaranteed support.

Requires your own x86-64 Linux server (at least 1 GB RAM, 2 GB recommended), maintenance, backups and hosting costs. Individual Sandstorm apps may have separate licenses or services. The optional Sandcats DNS service is not a free server.

The MIT/Apache-2.0 licensed self-hosted software is free, but servers, storage, networking, database resources and email-delivery infrastructure are not included. Temps Cloud and enterprise/premium features are separate paid offerings; do not confuse them with free self-hosting.
