Spinning up an ARM machine to build a container that needs to be shipped over the network to a Jetson is a pain when developing.

I get it, but I also simply don’t want to deal with it at an embedded level. Which is why I vote with my wallet and choose x64 hardware with Quadro GPUs to ship for production.

More expensive, more power consuming? Sure. More sanity? Massively better dev experience? Massively better production/ops experience? Absolutely.

You could spin up an AWS ARM instance in about 30s.

Or just have Jenkins etc trigger the launch of one when your build job needs it.
