| Notes | The page that the record cites no longer carries a price list: it is a product navigation page, and its only free route is a 60-day trial. The prior 404 on the default read was a partial extraction, not a dead page. |
| Evidence note | documented the page was reached on 2026-10-22 through the firecrawl provider after the default read returned 404. It carries no price table and points at a trials page, so the record's free-tier claim is not established by it and the rung stays reported on that field |

| Free tier | 'The Developer Sandbox provides you with a 30-day trial experience to a selection of Red Hat products.' and 'It is free. There is no credit card required. All you need is a Red Hat account.' One private OpenShift project on a shared multi-tenant cluster. unit hours; metered on wall-clock |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Limits | |
| Binding | retention-clamped Thirty days is a hard stop with no renewal in place, and the 1-hour VM shutdown means a VM cannot be a WireGuard node or an always-on monitor even inside that window. |
| Identity | any-phone no card, no payment data, no national ID. A Red Hat account plus a validated phone number: 'We require a valid phone number to reduce the creation of fraudulent accounts'. The FAQ does not say which countries' numbers are accepted, and no country list is published on the page read. |
| Egress | not published: neither the overview, the FAQ nor the try-it page states a traffic allowance for the sandbox. Routes and services are exposed through the shared cluster's router, which is normal OpenShift ingress. |
| Per-object cap | one project per sandbox, on a pre-configured resource quota that 'cannot be changed' |
| Retention | 'Your Developer Sandbox is active for 30 days'. Work can be exported before the trial ends and imported into a fresh 30-day trial: 'you can export your work before one trial ends, and import it when you've started your next 30 day trial'. |
| Interface | rest, cli oc CLI over the cluster API with a login token, plus the OpenShift web console and OpenShift Dev Spaces (a browser VS Code). Pods are ordinary OpenShift workloads; Linux VMs are available through OpenShift Virtualization. |
| Tooling | the oc or kubectl CLI, or the web console; Dev Spaces needs only a browser |
| Composes with | A real Kubernetes namespace with 14 GB of RAM to schedule against for 30 days, no card, which is the cheapest place to run a long-lived container or a small VM without owning a host. |
| Reliability | No reliability event observed. Shared multi-tenant cluster, so a neighbour's load is a plausible cause of a slow pod; the vendor publishes no status page for the sandbox on the pages read. |
| Notes | The largest no-card machine quota found: 14 GB of RAM against a real Kubernetes API for 30 days. Three caveats. First, the phone requirement is the identity cost and the FAQ gives no country list, so whether a non-Chinese, non-institutional number passes is unverified. Second, the 14 GB figure comes from podman-desktop.io rather than developers.redhat.com; the exact quota is readable only inside a live namespace with oc describe quota. Third, the 1-hour VM shutdown makes OpenShift Virtualization useless for an always-on node even though it is advertised. A separate OpenShift Dedicated trial exists on the same page at 60 days, but it provisions into a Google Cloud account the applicant owns, which brings its own card question and was not pursued. |
| Evidence note | documented The 30-day term, the no-card statement, the phone requirement and the 12-hour/1-hour workload reaps are quoted from Red Hat's own FAQ read. The 14 GB RAM and 40 GB storage quota is from podman-desktop.io, a Red Hat-adjacent documentation site, not from a page on developers.redhat.com, so it is reported rather than documented. |
