You can always start with the Oracle always free tier if you're ok with a bit less than you are looking at.
plus more stuff
Not really sure how they offer all this for free tbh
wtf i was thinking you were kidding, a vps with 24gb ram for free??
The huge downside it's that it's from Oracle, but at that price...
I think they hope someone misconfigures their VM and BOOM, huge bill incoming!
Not exactly. The always free tier just cuts you off if you try to go over your limits. It won't let you allocate stuff that it doesn't allow. I don't really understand how they can offer so much for free, but my consensus has mostly been "It's arm, and they probably spy a bit". Which some people are alright with, some people aren't. You can technically strip the OCI Agent from your VPS if you care about that second bit.
Looks good, but I'd rather pay for a server that use oracle. Seems a little too good for free. Especially for Oracle. The satellite image processing I want to do already has some trouble with my 48gb of ram so 24 might not work. Also I wanted to use the storage for an offsite backup. Thanks for the suggestion though!
