Oracle Cloud Always Free Autonomous Database with Apex keeps shutting down

RadoDJan 27 2022

Hi,
My trial period of Oracle Cloud Autonomous Database with Apex has ended and the always free resource - DB and Apex keeps turning itself off even if in use.
Even if manually started, it shuts down within 10 minutes.
I created a simple Apex app, multiple tables, jobs, email services (now disabled as trial is over) and several web services to create a POC, however it shuts itself off unexpectedly even if e.g. working with Apex developer, running the Apex app or firing up the web services through Postman.
So now I am confused, is it free or not, where are the logs showing if there is a problem with my code, DBMS_JOBs or something that would cause the DB to shutdown ?

Cheers,
Rado
