AWS's own offerings such as RDS and internal control plane stuff are very likely using ARM behind the sheets. I have evaluated going ARM, but I ended up deciding the savings were not worth it. Not only you need to mantain 2 archs simultaneously for some time, but porting some stuff to ARM, (e.g. Python) can be a pain in the ass. Finally, my devs work in AMD64 and that would be another source for "why does this work in dev but not prod".

> Finally, my devs work in AMD64 and that would be another source for "why does this work in dev but not prod". I can see a use case for building a CI/CD pipeline on Raspberry Pi's.

Just wait for the m1 MacBook to become common place. Then it’ll be my devs use ARM.
