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?
I think a good question for [email protected] 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. @[email protected] @[email protected]
What about Oracle made it work for you over others? Have you looked at the minors like Linode or DigitalOcean?
