I created a new VM.Standard.A1.Flex shape VPS on Oracle Cloud. It is just a FREE VPS.

ARM VPS:

  • 3 ocpu
  • 20 GB RAM
  • 47 GB storage

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) offers Ampere Altra processors and the industry’s first 80-core Arm server at only $0.01 per core hour, with flexible sizing from 1-80 OCPUs and 1-64 GB of memory per core. The OCI Ampere Altra A1 compute platform provides deterministic performance, linear scalability, and a secure architecture with the best price-performance in the market.

I did the tests on the VPS in different ways.
