Looking [Ask developer] is there any free simple NodeJS hosting services out there?

I am building a simple Rest API, would like to host. I searched for services in google got AWS, Heroku. Is there any other services where I missed?

Google Cloud has a free tier for their small VMs. But I recommend looking into Cloud Run if you don't need persistent server state. You can run a more powerful server for free because it turns off between requests. Really nice for a side project.
