[LINK] Free cloud services

Amazon and Microsoft advertise that you can get access to free cloud
services.

I'd like to run a Windows compute intensive app in something a lot more
powerful than my laptop. The .exe is under 200kb but it needs about
5-10Gbytes of memory to run in. It produces output files of up to 100MBytes.

Does anyone have any experience of Amazon and/or Microsoft (or anything
else) and what the risks might be? Especially if the thing runs wild and
chews up resources unexpectedly?

Advice/comments would be appreciated.
