Are Azure Cognitive Search services free?

Asked 2 years ago

I have been doing my own research on Azure Cognitive Search. I really like that it offers indexing and the feature of changing large text files into JSON documents that you can search easily. I want to start using Azure Cognitive Search. Does anybody know if it's a free service?

From setting up your Azure account to using the cognitive search, Azure Cognitive Search is free. Around 1.3 million developers and programmers are using Azure Search services to streamline app development. However, there are some paid add-ons and services that you can add to elevate your experience. Or, if you are short on budget, opt for free alternatives to those paid add-ons. Additionally, you can estimate the costs before committing to any paid services through the free cost calculator available on the site.
