No ARM64 images

[sholdee]

What did you do to encounter the bug?

• Followed steps to migrate from MongoDB Community Operator.
• Scaled down old operator.
• Installed mongodb-kubernetes helm chart to ARM64 k8s cluster.
• Operator crashes due to mismatched architecture.

What did you expect?
Operator deploys and functions normally with ARM64 support.

What happened instead?
Operator crashes with exec format error due to mismatched architecture (AMD64).

Operator Information

• Operator 1.0.1
• MongoDB 7.0.20

Kubernetes Cluster Information

• k3s
• 1.32.4
• quay.io

Additional context
The new operator images should be built with ARM64 support. ARM64 users of the MongoDB Community Operator currently not able to migrate.

Other referenced images, such as mongodb-kubernetes-init-appdb, also only have AMD64 image.

Hi @sholdee, and thanks for bringing up the topic and for providing all the information.

The MongoDB Community Operator, currently part of MCK, does not support ARM architecture.
We are currently discussing to implement this option and I hope soon it will be available.

Thanks and have a great day.

@sholdee Just to complete my answer: since we don’t currently provide ARM support for MCK and if this is a blocker for you, I recommend using a previous version of the MongoDB Community Operator.

Hi @vinilage, I have been running the MongoDB Community Operator for a while already, so I will stick with that and keep an eye out for MongoDB Controllers for Kubernetes ARM64 support. Thank you!

Thanks to you, @sholdee, and happy to hear you've been using our operator for a while.

Might be a good idea to put this in the readme in the root of the repo...

Hi, I am a community-operator user on an arm64 (only) k8s cluster, I want to move to mongodb-kubernetes.
Is there any update/due date for arm64 images?
Actually, from a Mac M1:

docker pull quay.io/mongodb/mongodb-kubernetes:1.1.0 
docker inspect quay.io/mongodb/mongodb-kubernetes:1.1.0 | grep architecture
                "architecture": "x86_64",

Might be a good idea to put this in the readme in the root of the repo...

I agree with it.

This PR seem to implement multiarch build #156

[nammn]

the operator itself now should be multi-arch again: #156 (once we do a new release)

Thank you all for raising the issue.
I will close this ticket, if you face any other issue, please let us know and we will be happy to discuss.

Have a great day!
