The Architecture of
Free.

How we migrate clients from $300/mo website subscriptions to a $0/mo commercially scalable architecture using OCI, Terraform, and Next.js.

Content Liberation

The first step in any migration is retrieving the locked content. Platforms like Squarespace and Wix are designed to be "sticky"—meaning they make it difficult to export your content in a usable format.

Modern Use Cases & Business Value

We replace the 'Rental' model with an 'Ownership' model. Instead of paying for a platform's permissions, you own the machine code and the compute power.

Static Performance (Next.js)

We rebuild your UI using SSG. This pre-renders every page into pure HTML, ensuring sub-100ms load times and total security.

Always-Free Compute (OCI)

Oracle provides 4 ARM Cores and 24GB of RAM for $0.00/mo. We deploy your APIs here, eliminating hosting 'rent' forever.

The Annual Revenue Recovery

Clients migrating from Squarespace Advanced typically save over $3,000 every year.

The Small-to-Medium Business (SMB) Strategic Advantage

  • Infrastructure as Code

    We define your cloud using Terraform, giving you a literal blueprint of your assets that you can redeploy anywhere.

  • Zero Data Harvesting

    Stop letting platforms sell your user data. On your own cloud, you control the privacy layer entirely.

  • Enterprise Scalability

    Next.js on a Global CDN handles thousands of users with standard dev-ops protocols, not 'cowboy coding'.

The Double-Edged Sword

The Power

  • $0.00 Monthly Cost: The most capital-efficient way to run a high-traffic business.
  • Maximum Speed: Static files on a CDN represent the absolute speed limit of the web.
  • Total Portability: You can move your Docker containers to any cloud at any time.

The Peril

  • Higher Initial setup: It takes more engineering to build than a drag-and-drop site.
  • Requires Technical Ownership: You own the assets; you are responsible for the keys.

The Takeaway

At Evergreen Strategy, we don't just build websites; we reconstruct your relationship with technology. Stop paying rent on your own digital backbone.

The Verdict

  • If you are spending $3,000+/yr on SaaS subscriptions, migrating to Oracle Free Tier pays for itself almost immediately.
  • We provide the full keys. You can manage the cloud yourself or have us manage it on your behalf.
