How to Install, Configure, and Launch Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Free Tier Instances via CLI

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) offers an always-free tier that includes ARM-based virtual machines (VM.Standard.A1.Flex). However, due to limited regional capacity, launching Free Tier instances through the web console often results in failure. Each failure forces you to manually reselect configurations — a time-consuming process. In contrast, the CLI lets you retry instantly with a single command, making it the preferred method when capacity is scarce.
