Running a 24GB 4 OCPU Always Free Oracle VM Instance, the catch is that it uses Arm 64bit processors and iv already ran into issues with standing up docker containers from some GitHub repos, due to incompatibility.
I am hoping there is a easyish way to emulate x86 so I can work with what I need to as seamlessly as possible. It’s quite a powerful server for FREE, if I can get the emulation working I don’t really care about the extra overheads.
I’d start with trying to find aarch64 container images. Search “image name aarch64”. If the source is available you could also build the image yourself, but I’ve never found software I wanted to use badly enough to do that. If you’re lucky someone already did it for you, but these images often aren’t kept up to date. Do the community a favor and drop the owner an issue asking for aarch64 builds if nothing else.
