Do the system resources on the Micro instance meet the recommended configuration for Oracle?
A.
Yes completely
B.
Yes but only for certain situations
C.
Not in any circumstance
Explanation:
We recommend that you use db.t1.micro instances with Oracle to test setup and connectivity only; the system
resources for a db.t1.micro instance do not meet the recommended configuration for Oracle. No Oracle options
are supported on a db.t1.micro instance.

Under no circumstances does it ever meet the recommended configuration – even for a lab. Don’t confuse “recommended configuration” with “hey, it’ll boot!”.
