One thing I found a bit daunting is that the documentation says you should never run Nomad on a single node in production. Could you tell me what the downside would be of running Nomad on 1 server in dev mode, versus running an application on 1 server without Nomad? Doing so could make it easier to start off a project with Nomad from the start, and expanding to the full blown "3-or-5 Nomad Servers, 1-to-10000 Nomad Clients" setup when needed. But maybe I'm not seeing the full picture.
- schmichael 5y agoIt's largely a testing and documentation issue on our end. Nomad clients (the daemon's running on each node managing workloads) keep your services running even if they lose contact with Nomad servers (the schedulers), so a Nomad outage != a service outage. Please start filing issues encountered in single server setups to help us improve the situation! What I'm afraid is that the lack of issues does not mean that it's a pain-free experience.
