Comment on Show HN: An Almost Free, Open Source TURN Server

99% of this does not depend on Oracle, you can do this on any vm hosting platform you can get. The only point of using Oracle is the price point which will vanish as soon as they can cease using it to build market share. Good to show btw. Nice instructions. They're mostly platform neutral. It might be a different interface to manage on another host of course but the outcome would be much the same.

Thanks, and you're exactly right - the Oracle bit is probably the most basic, interchangeable part of the whole stack. The tricky bit there for me was all the ports/firewall configuration which like you say will be the same/very similar anywhere.

For hobby projects like this I have had no complaints with OCI but yeah, you would have to be crazy to use it in production.
