Thanks to Google Cloud Platform's free tier and $300 credit, I have been spending more time building on GCP. As I start to call GCP home, it's time to dress it up. My objectives are as follows:

Can a $5-a-month virtual server run an OAuth2 Server? My virtual server has been my testbed for many IoT projects that make Web API calls to the web services that I have developed. None of these were as secure as I want them to be because I have never gone around implementing an OAuth2 server. Instead, I had mostly depended on POST with username and password to authenticate a user. This is not optimum and definitely not elegant. How do I even sleep at night!?
