PSA: Oracle is changing free tier limits. Update by the 15th to avoid charges

New limits:

- ARM: 2 OCPUs and 12GB of RAM (from 4 OCPUs and 24GB of RAM)

- AMD: Unchanged (still 2x 1 CPU, 1 GB)

Billing starts on the 15th (in 2 days). Update your instances by then, otherwise free instances will be shut down and PAYG instances will be charged $10-15 at the end of the month. Oracle decided to not notify their users about this...

To update the instance:

  1. Back up any important data
  2. Log in to Oracle Cloud dashboard, head to the "Instances" section and click on your instance.
  3. Click on Actions -> More actions -> Edit (see 3rd image)
  4. Change "Number of OCPUs" to 2 and "Amount of Memory" to 12 (see 4th image)
  5. Click "Save changes". The new limits will be applied and your instance will restart.

EDIT: More confirmation from Oracle by u/Santhosshh: https://imgur.com/a/JfssZou
EDIT 2: Clarified AMD limits - still the same 2 instances
