Decided to write up a quick post on a hacky workaround I came up with for custom distros Oracle free tier and thought I'd share. Don't rely on Oracle, but definitely do leverage as much of their free compute as you can for non-critical workloads!

I haven't had my instances deleted, but they do some kind of maintenance blip everyday that my monitoring sees as 3 seconds of downtime, so maybe keep that in mind.

    Interesting. I've had two instances running for over 2 years and haven't noticed that. It might be that I just don't notice it though. I'm not scrutinizing it much.

    Same. I just run a Minecraft server for my kid and his friends and a static HTML blog, so I'm ok with it.

    I'm fairly sure it's a background migration task, and I have a feeling it depends on your region.
