Universal Docker Images (same Engine version now works with Intel and ARM chips)

ARM CPU chips are growing in popularity every day. Newer generation Apple M1/2/3 chips, Microsoft SQ series chips, or other hardware makers use a variation of ARM chips.

Until the PageBuilder Engine 4.1 (and 5) release, Arc XP client developers had to designate which Engine version they wanted to run and add -m1 or -arm designations to the version names to make CLI use these special Docker images to run compatible runtimes for successfully running PageBuilder locally.

Previous process example in the .env file

FUSION_RELEASE=4.0.3-arm

This extra step and process is removed and is not needed anymore, starting with Engine 4.1 and above.

If you still want to point to a specific Engine version, you can use the FUSION_RELEASE environment variable, but you can provide only the version number now. For example, FUSION_RELEASE=4.1.5.

Universal Docker images are noted in OS/Arch section for each image, in the Docker Hub washpost/fusion-engine page.
