Why a free VPS?
It’s a great way to learn to manage your own server and get experience in the basics of back end web development.
If you want to learn how to install WordPress onto a web server, but you’re not sure where to begin, a free VPS is a great place to start. A free VPS is a Virtual Private Server, a virtual machine that you can use to run a number of different systems. This means that you can have a separate operating system dedicated to running your web server. It also means that you can use a different operating system than the one you use for other tasks. In this case, we will be using a free VPS with the Ubuntu operating system to run a web server.
What is Oracle Cloud?
The Oracle Cloud is a platform as a service (PaaS) cloud computing service operated by Oracle Corporation. It is designed to be a platform where a developer can run, store, and manage applications without the complexity of building and maintaining the infrastructure typically associated with developing and launching an application. The Oracle Cloud offers a choice of either the open source MySQL database or Oracle Database as a service. The Oracle Cloud is a pure Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) cloud computing platform. It was announced by Oracle Corporation on May 15, 2013. It provides Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) along with platform as a service (PaaS) and software as a service (SaaS) cloud computing. As of 2021, Oracle Cloud is available in many regions worldwide.

Why is Oracle Cloud Free Tier better than Google or AWS?
It’s been a year since I started using Oracle Cloud . I have a few small websites hosted there and a few other things going on. Overall it’s been a great experience and I’ve been a lot more productive than I have been with any other free hosting service. It’s been nearly a year since I started using Oracle Cloud . I have a few small websites hosted there and a few other things going on. Overall it’s been a great experience and I’ve been a lot more productive than I have been with any other hosting service. I’ve tried Google Cloud (in the past) and AWS but I found that their free tier doesn’t give you enough resources or storage to get any real work done.
Is Oracle Cloud Really Free?
Ever wondered if the Oracle Cloud is really free? Well, let me tell you from my experience, it’s free as long as you only use their free tier options. When you use the free options you will never pay anything. But as soon as you upgrade your usage you will be billed for it. In the video above I will explain how I’ve managed to use this for a long time and never get billed. It’s important to be aware of all the things you can do with a free account. And if you want to save money then you should know what can be done with a free account and what can’t.
