What is ServiceNow personal developer’s instance?
The ServiceNow Developer Program provides developers with resources to learn, build and deploy applications on the ServiceNow platform.
Once registered for the ServiceNow Developer Program, a personal developer instance can be requested on this site either from the Developer Dashboard or from the Manage main menu.
ServiceNow offers free, full-featured personal developer instances (PDI) to registered users who want to develop applications on the ServiceNow platform or improve their skills with ServiceNow. Members of the ServiceNow Developer Program can use their PDI as long as there is activity on the instance.
If there is no activity within 10 days, the instance will be returned to the pool of available instances. If this happens to you, request a new instance and a new developer instance will be granted to you if available. For more info Servicenow Training
