Step-by-step wizard: 2 cores and 12 GB of memory — free forever
→
What this wizard does
Walks you through signing up for Oracle Cloud and picking a home region where free capacity is actually available.
Generates an API key, checks it against your account, builds the network (VCN, internet gateway, subnet) and prepares an SSH key.
Hunts for free capacity around the clock — tries to create the server every minute in every availability domain until it succeeds. You can close the tab.
Shows the public IP and lets you download the SSH key. Then one click wipes everything you stored here.
Oracle Always Free limits since June 2026: 2 OCPU / 12 GB RAM and 200 GB of storage per free account (Pay As You Go accounts: 4 / 24). A bank card is required by Oracle for sign-up; the wizard uses only Always Free resources.
You will get a personal link to your session — bookmark it to come back from any device. Already have one? Just open it.
🔒
Your data
The API key you add in Oracle grants access to your tenancy. It is stored on this server only for the duration of the hunt, in a session isolated from other users, and is never shared.
Delete it yourself with the “Delete my data” button at the end; abandoned sessions are removed automatically (empty ones after 24 hours, inactive ones after 60 days).
Prefer to self-host? The code is open source — see the GitHub link below.
