ARM-based server processors are still rare on the ground. IIRC Equinix Metal and Oracle Cloud offer them (Ampere chips) but not GCP or Azure. We've tested Graviton2 for data warehouse workloads and the price/performance was about 25% cheaper and 25% faster than comparable Intel-based VMs. Still crunching the numbers but that's the approximate shape of the results.
