Public clouds are increasing their usage of ARM all the time. I don't think anyone will ditch Intel processors soon (the same way that for those outside our space, they're still buying Intel laptops), but I think we will only see that usage grow in the datacenter.

Disagree. Server hardware usually gets rotated on a fairly aggressive schedule, and power consumption absolutely matters for server farms.

And heat, which makes cooling cheaper, has a good chance at reducing noise in the datacentre, etc.

FWIW my next project on AWS will almost certainly be using graviton instances.
