i recently read an article about running k8s on the oracle free tier and was looking to try it. i'm curious, are there any specific pain points that are making you think of switching?


Nope, just Oracle being a corp with a nasty reputation. Honesty it was easy to set up and has been super stable, and if you go ARM the amount of resources you get for free is crazy. I actually do recommend it for personal projects on the like. I'd just be hesitant about building a business based on any Oracle offering.


Got it, thanks for the clarification! I’ll be using it for a personal project so that sounds great.


I've got a couple of free arm machines setup as a cluster for learning k8 + a few LB in front of it. I use k3s, with pg rather than etcd. Been a great learning experience.
