If ARM servers take over, then running ARM docker natively on M1 could be helpful ...
... but for the current state where ARM-compatible images make up roughly 1% of Docker Hub, I don't even see the point of wanting to use Docker on M1.
- augusto-moura 6y agoI think you can still use docker x86 images on virtualization mode
- wmf 6y agoNo, I've seen no evidence of this. Docker Desktop does not work [on Apple Silicon] in any form today.
- augusto-moura 6y agoOn ARM in general or with Apple Silicon? The problem with Apple is that processor doesn't supports virtualization mode yet AFAIK
- wmf 6y agoDocker Desktop does not work on Apple Silicon. The M1 processor does support virtualization; just wait for Docker to finish their port.
- my123 6y agoOr start a regular Linux VM and run Docker inside instead of using the wrapper.
- postalrat 6y agoDocker doesn't let you run x86 binaries on arm without emulation.
- xarbit 6y agowell, evidence would be something like this: https://ish.app https://ish.app
- frant-hartm 6y agoBut that's because it was such a niche until just recently - basically only playing with docker/k8 on Raspberry PI and the likes. With AWS Graviton instances and these new Macs it will quickly change.
- threeseed 6y agoARM servers will take over you just probably won't know it. AWS is in the process of moving all of their managed services e.g. RDS, ElasticCache over to their Graviton platform.
- bengale 6y agoGraviton2 is looking really compelling in our tests. At this point we plan to migrate all of our instances over the next year and we’re going to want arm machines locally to develop with. It’s starting to come together.
