I want to test my ASP.Net MVC web application on Cloud server. Is their any cloud server that is free and support SQL Server 2008 DB?

I know this question is kind of a basic one. i am searching on internet and found only appharbor but i couldn't understand its deployment method.

Edit: Updating too late but might help for searching people. After lots of searching I couldn't find free Cloud providers. I managed to get Azure account for testing from a person.

    You could try Azure. They have a free plan, or at least a free trial: http://www.windowsazure.com/ – Kenneth Apr 29 '13 at 18:17

    AppHarbor is a fully hosted .NET PaaS with a free feature-limited plan which includes 20MB storage https://appharbor.com/pricing & SQL Server access - https://appharbor.com/addons/sqlserver – mvark Jan 10 '15 at 08:07

    https://www.gearhost.com works perfectly fine for my projects. I use their `Free` plan for development and scale to paid for production if needed. – serhiyb Aug 29 '16 at 15:14

I can't vouch for them, but here's what I managed to dig up on Google:

  • Somee - free ASP.NET hosting, 15 MB MSSQL, 5 GB monthly traffic
  • ASPSpider - judging by the site.. not very professional?

You are far better off with Azure. All these free hosts are usually very bad. If you don't have your own credit card, perhaps you could ask a family member or a friend? If they are worried about their card security, it's far safer to give it to Microsoft than any of those other hosts.
