Introduction
I have been recently using and trying out Oracle Cloud. A very underrated cloud provider in the industry. But they have one feature that no other cloud provider have, even AWS. Always Free. It means you can use some of their resources completely for free forever! Let me stop talking about Always Free right now and tell you how to make a VM using Always Free forever!
How to do
Make Oracle Cloud Account.
Go to oracle.com/cloud/free/. Click on "Start for free and sign-up. You will have to put your credit/debit card to verify. Once you have signed-up you have now access to Oracle Cloud Always Free Program!

Create the Always Free VM.
Once you have your cloud panel finished up scroll down until you see a "Launch Resources" and below that is "Create a VM Instance" with a text box saying, "Always Free".
Click the "Launch a VM Instance" and continue. You should see some information to set-up your VM Instance. If it will be your only VM instance, give it over 200GB of storage! Once you finished configuring the VM click, "Create".
Conclusion
You are now DONE! You can now enjoy Oracle Cloud 100% for free. You are also given a 30-day trial of $300 credits! I have took a break from DevDojo and now I am slowly coming back to post here! I hope I will be able to do more Oracle Cloud tutorials!
