# How to Build Multi-Architecture Docker Images with BuildX | Deploy containers to x86 and ARM!

**[DevOps Directive](https://daily.dev/sources/devops-directive)** · 10 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

A practical walkthrough on building multi-architecture Docker images using Docker BuildX and QEMU emulation. Covers why ARM support is increasingly important (Apple Silicon, AWS Graviton), how multi-architecture manifests work, and step-by-step instructions for creating and pushing images that run on both x86 and ARM. Also discusses cost savings from deploying on ARM-based AWS instances (up to 20% cost reduction, 40% performance gains) and limitations like missing base images or dependencies for certain architectures.
