Hi @Anonymous ,

Thank you for posting query in Microsoft Q&A Platform.

If I understand ask better, You would like to have databricks resources such as cluster etc.. created with student subscription and work with them. Please feel free to correct me if my understanding is wrong.

Currently, you can use Azure Free Trial subscription to create a Single node cluster which will have one Driver node with 4 cores.

Single Node cluster is a cluster consisting of a Spark driver alone and no Spark worker nodes. Such clusters support Spark jobs and all Spark data sources, including Delta Lake. In contrast, Standard clusters require at least one Spark worker to run Spark jobs.

Single Node clusters are helpful in the below scenarios:

• Lightweight exploratory data analysis.
• Running single node machine learning workloads that need Spark to load and save data

If you wish to have more nodes then its not possible with student subscription. One should upgrade account to Pay-as-you-go and remove spending limit.
Detailed steps and discussion about same is available in below thread. I request you go through same for more idea.
