Amazon Web Services LLC (AWS), an Amazon.com company has unveiled that customers can now run their Microsoft Windows Server applications within the AWS Free Usage Tier - a program claimed to be designed to help new AWS customers get started in the cloud. Developers and businesses with Windows Server applications are expected to take advantage of 750 hours of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) Micro Instance usage per month, at no charge for a one year period. With the expansion of the AWS Free Usage Tier, Windows developers are now supposed to have access to the same free resources on AWS as Linux developers - providing the ability to launch new applications, test existing applications in the cloud, or gain hands-on experience with AWS. The AWS Free Usage Tier addition is said to join a number of recent AWS service extensions to support Windows customers, including Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 on the high power Cluster Compute instances, Microsoft SQL 2012 beta preview on AWS, Microsoft BizSpark Licenses on AWS, and support for Microsoft Windows HPC clusters using Amazon EC2 instances. |
