Nomad

A flexible workload orchestrator by HashiCorp for deploying containers, binaries, Java apps, and VMs. Ships as a single binary with embedded Raft storage and a built-in web UI.

What You Can Do After Deployment

1. Visit your domain — the Nomad web UI loads immediately in dev mode (no login required)
2. Explore the dashboard — view cluster topology, server status, and resource allocation
3. Submit jobs — define and submit job specifications through the UI or API
4. Monitor allocations — track running, pending, and failed allocations in real-time
5. View logs — stream stdout/stderr from running allocations directly in the UI
6. Inspect job definitions — view and edit HCL/JSON job specifications
7. Use the API — interact with the full Nomad HTTP API: curl https://YOUR_DOMAIN/v1/jobs

Key Features

• Multi-task, multi-driver workload orchestration
• Built-in web UI with job management and monitoring
• Bin-packing scheduler for efficient resource utilization
• Multi-region and multi-datacenter federation
• Service discovery and load balancing
• Rolling updates and canary deployments
• ACL system for access control

Note: This runs in dev mode (in-memory, single-node). Suitable for exploration and development. Job execution requiring Docker is not available in this container environment.
