A is just a no-go, M1 emulation won't work like that.

Wait, can you really not virtualize OS X on Unix?

I’m leaning towards option C, but I remember there being some limitations with using Mac instances on AWS.

I’m a bit confused about the options. I thought virtualizing OS X was a common practice, but I can't recall if it applies to AWS.

I feel like I've seen a similar question before, and I think the answer was related to using Mac instances directly rather than emulating anything.
JU
Judy

Hold on, did someone say 'emulating the M1 processor using ARM clusters'? That's like trying to teach a goldfish how to fly. I'm sticking with the good old-fashioned D, virtualizing OS X on Unix servers.

I think the approach to enable Mac instances on AWS is by using physical Mac computers in the data center.
RY
Ryan

Woah, using physical Mac computers in the data center? That's like bringing a horse-drawn carriage to a Formula 1 race. I'm gonna have to go with D, virtualizing OS X on Unix servers.
BR
Brynn

Hmm, I think B is the way to go. Installing OS X exclusively on I (Burstable) instance. That's a unique approach, and it might just work!
GE
