I know anecdotes aren't data, but I was talking with a colleague about chips recently and he noticed that converting all of his cloud JVM deployments to ARM machines both improved performance and lowered costs. The costs might not even be the chips themselves, but less power and thermal requirements that lowers the OpEx spend.

Yeah, my company is gearing up to do the same. We primarily use the JVM so doing the arm switcharoo only makes sense.
