Pretty cool in theory, but unless there's heavy evidence that they're actually faster (doubtful), the offerings don't seem very competitive.
It also sucks that they're providing no architectural details at all. Who'd want to invest in a platform that there's no information about? Pretty douchy desu.

That's not the point.
Amazon already cucking Inturd by going Zen 2 for main servers, now they're going to ditch Zionist turds in the EC2 cloud systems. It's fucking over. Inturd is completely kicked out of Amazon's server space.

Point being, if they're not significantly cheaper, nor significantly faster, what would be the reason for their customers to leave x86 for, relatively speaking, unknown territory?

Meltdown, Spectre, other security holes, Inturd generally being shit housefire for gorrilion buckzoids when you can get cheap as fuck Zen and ARM that's efficient AND performs amazing.

is it finally happening?

Already did in mobile/notebook, lel.
Nathan Roberts
Because Amazon will be basically giving away free compute resources for you to use it.
Camden Anderson
What do the security holes even matter if they're using an ARM core that is even slower than Intel with fixes? Given that they're providing literally zero details, we don't know whether it is.
Jordan Murphy
I feel bad for those companies who actually bought a shitload of Skylake Xeons in advance, only to get cucked by Meltdown, Spectre, L1TF, etc.
