If you're speaking about the existing technique MS has developed to run MS SQL on Linux, it doesn't work on M1s in Docker under Qemu user emulation: https://github.com/microsoft/mssql-docker/issues/668

That's 2019. I haven't tested 2017 or 2022, but I assume they don't work either. AFAIK the official advice is to use Azure SQL Edge instead.

qemu-user is indeed hopelessly unsuitable for any kind of heavy use. Use anything else. :)

But that doesn't answer the question of "does Rosetta deal with it properly?".

SQL Server doesn't work under Rosetta.

Oh! Sorry, I didn't realize you were going to try it under Rosetta. That is very disappointing that Rosetta doesn't do any better. Thanks for testing.
