Amazon Web Service (AWS) account (trial version) without credit card info [closed]

I tried to create account on aws.amazon.com. But it needs credit card information to complete the login process.

As I do not intend to use AWS for any commercial purpose but for academic/self-learning purpose, is there way to create a trial account ( probably a limited version say limited functionalities or limited time period )

There is no such thing as a 'free' AWS account. All accounts are full, production accounts. You will always need to provide a credit card to use AWS (or sign-up for invoicing). If you wish to try some AWS service, you can take advantage of the Free Usage Tier.

The AWS Free Usage Tier provides a limited quantity of some AWS services at no charge. When you exceed the quantity of usage (eg hours of an Amazon EC2 t2.micro instance, amount of storage in Amazon S3), then you will be charged normal rates for the service.
