Request to support Oraclecloud.

Open NotHere opened this issue 4 years ago • 9 comments

Requesting support for Oracle cloud. Reason - Oracle cloud offers a a free tier:

https://www.oracle.com/cloud/free/

The free tier offers two compute VMs in their always free tier.

They also offer the first 10 TB of outbound traffic for free, vs 1TB for $92/month and 10TB for $922/month at AWS.

Being able to get a couple of always free VPN servers would be a great feature :)

More info regarding the free tier,

Only one Public IP is provided or using a Load Balancer of 10Mbps shape.

If using public ip, the VM is provided with 480mbps network card.

Oracle recently added a very generous free tier for their Ampere ARM VMs ( 4 cores, 26gb mem, 10 TB egress ).

This bug will probably see a lot more interest as a result. :)

So a few months ago, Oracle only offered Oracle Linux with the ARM VMs. I could not get Algo working due to dependences issue. However, today, they offer Ubuntu 20.04 and I managed to do a local install without issues.

If the project chooses to support automated installs to Oracle cloud, be aware that each user gets a custom login URL to their oracle cloud.

The VM.Standard.A1.Flex (always free) defaults to 1CPU, 6GB Ram, and 1Gbps bandwidth. You can max out to 4 CPUs and 24GB ram. And 10TB monthly traffic.

So now this is impossible to use Oracle Cloud or process is more complicated?

@NotHere Have you gotten this to work recently and if so what were the steps? I've attempted a local install with Ubuntu 22.04 and can't make a connection over Wireguard. I've created the required security rules to allow connections on ports 500, 4160, 4500, and 51820 but think it may be an issue with Oracle's default iptables rules conflicting with Algo's rules.

I gave up on this and rather setup my own servers on podman with the base of linuxserver.io It does includes anisble way of installation and needs fedora based OS distro on VMs. If you're interested, here is the repo https://github.com/hasan4791/x-servers
