Over the past couple of years, there's been a bit of interest in Fedora Cloud on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure because of its generous free tier, particularly for ARM instances.
Doing this is essentially blocked on switching to Mash, which is tracked in #301. We also need to find out if the Oracle backend relies on FOSS tooling. If it doesn't, then we can't really proceed anyway...
Metadata Update from @ngompa: - Issue marked as depending on: #301
FWIW, I was able to run the regular Aarch64 cloud image after importing it as a custom image.
@ngompa Thanks for bringing this up for discussion! I have a few package reviews for the OCI SDK/CLI right now. In my experience, their cloud accepts most widely used image formats and we might not need to modify anything.
@mhayden we need credentials for uploads and access.
@davdunc Agreed. I think I might have one contact over there. Does anyone else know of someone there to start a conversation?
I know some people from a long time ago. I can check to see if anyone would be interested in putting us in touch with the right people.
@mhayden - i'll let you try with your contact first. Let me know how it goes.
@dustymabe any luck? We want to be ready to push images as soon as next week.
@davdunc my current status was https://pagure.io/cloud-sig/issue/400#comment-868499
Sorry for the lack of an update on this end. My attempts hit a dead end.

So we're not adopting Mash anymore, instead @davdunc is working on an Ansible-based way to upload to clouds.
