Oracle keeps changing the idle requirements for compute instances
Oracle keeps changing the idle requirements for compute instances
Has anyone noticed that oracle keeps changing the idle requirements for compute instances?
I just checked their docs:
- CPU utilization for the 95th percentile is less than 20%
- Network utilization is less than 20%
- Memory utilization is less than 20% (applies to A1 shapes only)
In May it was 15% and in March it was 10%.
Is there anyway I can keep my compute instance without having them keep reclaiming it?
You're viewing a single thread.
You could switch to a company that isn't openly hostile to its customers.
I think a good question for newcool1230@lemm.ee is why Oracle. If they don’t have a reason to be using it, this is a great suggestion.
I've tried a few others but Oracle was the only one that kinda worked for me. I'm open to switching to other providers if you have any suggestions. @SheeEttin@lemmy.world @thesmokingman@programming.dev
What about Oracle made it work for you over others? Have you looked at the minors like Linode or DigitalOcean?
Difficult to beat a free offer
You can get free offers from most places. If you juggle accounts and don’t do a ton, you can use AWS for free perpetually without dealing with this odd idle fandango.
