"Each tenancy gets the first 3,000 OCPU hours and 18,000 GB hours per month for free to create Ampere A1 Compute instances. This free-tier usage is shared across Bare Metal, Virtual Machine, and Container Instances."
For block storage:
"Block Volume service Free tier allowance is for entire tenancy, 200GB total/tenancy. If there are multiple quotes for the same tenancy, only total 200GB can be applied"
In other words: you have a 4-core ARM CPU + 24GB RAM + 200GB space for free.
Yep, I was running one of these for the longest time.. until they blocked idle instances! Hah.. thats the kind of usage free gets you, lot of people hoarding it for... nothing. I mean, I could easily have thought of stuff to load the instance up slightly but, eeh.
You can also add an extra 50gb of space to pay like $5/month, that way you are paying and it is still an insanely better deal than any of the other cloud providers
