It's maybe almost too early, given the performance profile of these and the current state of software compat, but the trajectory is definitely there for RISC-V. Wouldn't be surprised to see these compete strongly against ARM servers a few years from now.
- crq-yml 3y agoThis one is probably more for Scaleway to gain experience than for customers to use seriously. Of course, that excuse could be true for customers too.
- brucehoult 3y agoThe performance is about the same as the first Graviton servers in late 2018.
- Hamuko 3y agoDo they still offer ARM? I remember them killing the ARM bare metal back in the day.

- c0balt 3y agoThey are discontinued as of the end of January 2024. (See the FAQ section). Their only ARM appears to be Cost Optimized Arm: https://www.scaleway.com/en/cost-optimized-instances-based-on-arm/ https://www.scaleway.com/en/cost-optimized-instances-based-o...

- Hamuko 3y agoAren't speed and price the two primary metrics of a server?
