Update Docker Compose Apple Silicon guidance#363
Merged
Conversation
The AtoM development service images now publish ARM64 variants, so Apple Silicon and other ARM-based hosts can use the default Compose file without an additional platform override. Discourage `platform: linux/amd64` for everyday ARM development because it forces emulation instead of using native ARM64 images. Image variant checks: docker buildx imagetools inspect docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-oss:7.10.2 docker buildx imagetools inspect percona/percona-server:8.4
