Unless you hate HCL, 1, 2, and 3 pretty much describe Nomad exactly. We run over 100k production applications on Nomad. But migration to AWS from private data centers, our HashiCor…

Nomad has gained basic service discovery and K/V store without Consul. However, health checking is extremely limited.

Yep, I'm also 6' 3" and on the heavy side. I don't fly often so I find the knee room tax to be very worth it.

Fairly large Nomad Enterprise user here, and I just want to say thanks for all of the work you and the team put in. I'm a big fan of Nomad and really appreciate the opportunities i…

Also a Hashistack enterprise customer and we have the same experience. Thankfully we don't have to talk to Consul support very often, but each time we meet with Consul product peop…

Totally agreed on being disappointed with Support. There are some diamonds in the rough, but I'd give them a hearty thumbs-down overall. Agreed on feature requests too. If it isn't…

This is one of my favorite things about Thanos. We run Prometheus in multiple private datacenters, multiple AWS regions across multiple AWS accounts, and multiple Azure regions acr…

I'm probably different from most people, but I really wish there were more rail options in the US (I'm in Texas). It's a 4 hour drive from where I live to my hometown. I really don…

This is now our primary use of Ansible as well. We install and minimally configure systems in machine images, then use cloud-init to do the remaining 1% of config at VM build time.…

Yep, we run the full stack. Consul for service discovery and as the storage backend for Vault. We use Vault for config, PKI, Nomad/Consul ACL auth, and we're just starting to exper…

I think your description is more accurate. A Task is an individual unit of work: a container, executable, JVM app, etc. A Task Group/Allocation is a group of Tasks that will be pla…

We use Terraform to manage as much of the configuration of Vault (and Consul and Nomad) as we can. The provider is pretty good. This makes it a lot easier to get a 1000ft view of t…

The Nomad Day N experience is pretty good. I help maintain 4 Nomad clusters running approx 40k Allocations (like Pods) for work. We have basically no problems with Nomad itself, an…

Several articles have said that only 40% of homes in Texas use natural gas for heat. https://climatecrocks.com/2021/02/14/the-eyes-of-texas-are-o...
