   So, prepaid services which you top up?

   I know AWS and similar sites have no such concepts, but other than those, this is an existing option of most kinds of service providers.

   Realistically, most providers can't even allow you to consume $10k usage if they don't have the certainty that you can pay up. Prepaid is what gives them that certainty.

      I thought Microsoft used to give student's some free Azure credits - say $200. Rumor is, Microsoft was very good at pulling the plug the instant you went over that billing limit.
