Have you ever wanted to have a server running 24–7 for free! Yes, you can setup a Linux server to run for free doing things with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. It will do whatever you want. And it’s free!

Oracle Cloud Free Tier promises to give us certain services indefinitely for free (additionally, when creating the account they assign us a certain amount of credits), as we see on the FAQ page of this platform.
