Microsoft SQL Server is only available as an x86-64 docker container binary. They actually had a native(?) arm64 docker container under the name "azure-sql-edge", which was (and still is) super useful as you can run it "natively" in an arm64 qemu linux for example, but alas that version was not long lived, as Microsoft decided to stop developing it again, which feels like a huge step backwards.

There's probably other closed-source linux software being distributed as amd64-only binaries (rosetta 2 for linux VMs isn't limited to docker containers).
