A while back I described how the Eventuate Tram Customers and Orders example did not run on my shiny new M1 MacBook due to problems with flaky Intel-only Docker images. I’m super happy to announce that after updating several Eventuate projects, it now runs successfully. This post summaries the changes that I needed to make.
The other articles in this series are:
First, I needed to change the following projects to publish multi-architecture Docker images:
Next, I updated Eventuate Tram Customers and Orders project to used the images published by these projects. Some images, such as the Eventuate CDC image, simply needed to be upgraded to the latest versions. Other images needed to be replaced with multi-architecture image. Specifically, I replaced the following Intel-specific images:
Finally, I enhanced the CircleCI pipeline to run the MySQL 8 version of the tests on both Intel and Arm.
I replaced the old build-and-test-all-mysql-binlog
job with two new jobs: build-and-test-all-mysql-binlog-intel
and build-and-test-all-mysql-binlog-arm
.
To see these changes, please take a look at this Github commit.
There’s still more work to do. The project is still using Intel-only Postgres and MS SQL server images. However, after making these changes I now have a laptop that I can use for development.
Microservices.io is brought to you by Chris Richardson. Experienced software architect, author of POJOs in Action, the creator of the original CloudFoundry.com, and the author of Microservices patterns.
Chris helps clients around the world adopt the microservice architecture through consulting engagements, and training workshops.
Chris teaches comprehensive workshops for architects and developers that will enable your organization use microservices effectively.
Avoid the pitfalls of adopting microservices and learn essential topics, such as service decomposition and design and how to refactor a monolith to microservices.
Learn moreChris offers numerous other resources for learning the microservice architecture.

Consider signing up for a two hour, highly focussed, consulting session.
My virtual bootcamp, distributed data patterns in a microservice architecture, is now open for enrollment!
It covers the key distributed data management patterns including Saga, API Composition, and CQRS.
It consists of video lectures, code labs, and a weekly ask-me-anything video conference repeated in multiple timezones.
The regular price is $395/person but use coupon MECNPWNR to sign up for $120 (valid until May 16th, 2023). There are deeper discounts for buying multiple seats.
Take a look at my Manning LiveProject that teaches you how to develop a service template and microservice chassis.
Engage Chris to create a microservices adoption roadmap and help you define your microservice architecture,
Use the Eventuate.io platform to tackle distributed data management challenges in your microservices architecture.
Eventuate is Chris's latest startup. It makes it easy to use the Saga pattern to manage transactions and the CQRS pattern to implement queries.
Engage Chris to conduct an architectural assessment.
