I've used the preview release, and my experience with ARM containers has been good - even seems a little more stable than the Intel one.
But I only did a x86 Linux container as a test, and it wasn't a great experience. Seemed visibly slower and crashed once.
So whether or not this suits your needs, I feel, depends on to what degree you need the "contract" that your local environment is the same as prod, because you're probably using x86 Linux/BSD boxes.
- mikepurvis 6y agoThe other side of that is that this would be an awesome local dev platform for a shop targeting ARM servers.
- stu2b50 6y agoYep. Given that the fastest Windows ARM device is an M1 Macbook Pro running Windows in Parallels, there's currently no competition for local platforms and ARM. If Amazon and Nvidia's ARM server chips really pick up steam, then the M1 Macbooks would be the premiere local device.
- cmeacham98 6y ago> Given that the fastest Windows ARM device is an M1 Macbook Pro running Windows in Parallels I seriously doubt this is true if you include desktop computers in the comparison.
- scoopertrooper 6y agoI'm not aware of any desktop ARM devices that can beat the M1.
- Webox 6y agoI think its an anti pattern if you do it locally different than what you do on production.
