vMX on ARM?

This is a long shot, but the cloud platforms are promoting their own silicon quite heavily and reflecting this in the pricing of the VMs. Currently when the vMX-S is deployed in Azure a recommended VM size is a D2 v3, which is a dual-core 2.4GHz Xeon with 8GB RAM. A D2ps v6 is a dual-core 3.4GHz Azure Cobalt 100 with 8GB RAM and roughly 75% of the cost of the D2 v3 and with double the network throughput. I'm sure Amazon are doing something similar but I am less familiar with their platform.

 

Is it likely we will see vMX running on ARM in the next couple of years?

Hi @JonnyM ,

 

Currently, vMX is not supported on ARM architecture, and we don’t have a projected timeline for when this might be available.
