The free tiers are marketing (and quite powerful at that) - I'm surprised Amazon doesn't match it, but AWS is the big fish in the pond.

If you start playing with a free tier cloud and decide to "go big" you're almost certain to keep using that cloud and begin to pay. (This is the reason that Google will give out nearly infinite "credits" to startups for their cloud, I hear).
