Using images with generic architectures in Docker can generate incompatibilities with M1 Silicon processors.

We can use the Rosetta virtualization layer to solve this kind of problems.

Method 1: export variable.

If we are using the CLI directly, we can export the following variable beforehand in the shell:

1

export DOCKER_DEFAULT_PLATFORM=linux/amd64

Method 2: correct docker-compose.

If we are using docker-compose, we modify it according to the file format:

1

platform: linux/amd64

For example:

1
2
3

kafka:
	image: confluentinc/cp-kafka:latest
	platform: linux/amd64

Method3: correct dockerfile:

Another option if what we use is a dockerfile:

1
2

ARG build_for=linux/amd64
- FROM --platform=$build_for python:3.9.13-slim AS base
