Is x86 likely to stay as the dominant cloud architecture though? My understanding of ARM on AWS is that if your stuff supports it then it’s better performance per dollar and basically a no brainer. I don’t see why x86 would continue to be the dominant deployment target long term, especially with Apple moving their line to ARM meaning that developers will increasingly demand compatibility with it across the stack.
