I assume that Nomad is simpler since the other features are provided by other hashi corp tools (e.g. secrets, auth, etc).

- capableweb 5y agoIndeed, the focus is different for the two tools, something that is outlined with more words in the opening paragraph of this very submission: > Kubernetes aims to provide all the features needed to run Linux container-based applications including cluster management, scheduling, service discovery, monitoring, secrets management and more. > Nomad only aims to focus on cluster management and scheduling and is designed with the Unix philosophy of having a small scope while composing with tools like Consul for service discovery/service mesh and Vault for secret management.
- sjtindell 5y agoIn my experience you end up needing additional tools for everything in Kubernetes such as secrets, auth, etc. that’s the pluggable API selling point.
- streetcat1 5y agoMight. But most of them are open source with healthy competition. With Nomad, the ecosystem is much smaller(basically one company), and can always be closed under a paywall (e.g. terraform enterprise)
