hi queue29, what are the minimum production requirements for nomad ? what is the cheapest machine i could use from digitalocean for a production task ?
- Queue29 5y ago
  Check out the recommended requirements[0] documentation. In practice it depends greatly on how many client agents you want to manage (i.e. how large is your cluster). I personally run Nomad + Consul + Vault on the $6 AMD DO droplet to run a few website, and that node still has room to spare.

Uh, awesome! I think I missed this feature then. When was it introduced? I remember using Nomad back when it was still 0.x, and I don't remember ever reading about this feature. Awesome addition btw!

  I think I started using Nomad in 2018 or around there, and first tests I did was with the docker, java and qemu drivers.

Does Nomad have any support for SmartOS?

  Hey, afaik no, but you can compile nomad to work with OmniOS so i assume you can do the same for SmartOS. Haven't tried that in quite a while, so don't quote me on that. In this fork you can find fixes that add OmniOS support for older version of nomad. https://github.com/cneira/nomad https://github.com/cneira/nomad But if you want to implement something like zones driver for smartos forking/updating this would be your best option: https://github.com/cneira/nomad-zones-driver https://github.com/cneira/nomad-zones-driver https://github.com/Smithx10/nomad-driver-triton https://github.com/Smithx10/nomad-driver-triton
