Why not to put website on Oracle Cloud? (1CPU, 1GB RAM, 47GB HDD - for free, with slightly limited network speed).

I mean I can imagine local need of FTN sw (due to local modem and phone line), but why web locally?

In general, there is plenty better HW available just for the price of pick it up. Why to go to extreme always?
