AWS Lambda MicroVMs Now Runs x86 Workloads Natively

AWS Lambda MicroVMs just dropped x86 CPU architecture support, so you can deploy your existing x86 applications without recompiling—just pick x86 when building your MicroVM image from a Dockerfile. The feature rolls out across most AWS regions (except Hong Kong, Malaysia, Thailand, and Spain), giving you the flexibility to choose between x86 and Arm (Graviton) based on your workload needs.
