I will be starting a new series on HashiCorp Nomad. This series will not cover the basics of Nomad, how to use it, and how to integrate it with other tools. Instead, this series will focus on how to use Nomad in real-world scenarios, how to deploy applications using Nomad, and how to manage and monitor applications deployed using Nomad.
What is Nomad?
Nomad is an easy-to-use, flexible, and performant workload orchestrator that can deploy a mix of microservice, batch, containerized, and non-containerized applications. Nomad is easy to operate and scale and has native Consul and Vault integrations.
More details on Nomad can be found on the official website .
Why Nomad? Why not Kubernetes?
Nomad is a simple and easy-to-use orchestrator that can be used to deploy and manage applications. It is lightweight and can be used to deploy applications in a variety of environments. Nomad is a good choice for organizations that want to deploy applications quickly and easily without the complexity of Kubernetes.
Kubernetes, on the other hand, is a complex orchestrator that is designed for large-scale deployments. It is feature-rich and can be used to deploy applications in a variety of environments. Kubernetes is a good choice for organizations that want to deploy applications at scale and have the resources to manage a complex system.
