Living the Nomadic life
summary
Nomad is an agent‑based scheduler that ships as one‑binary agent‑based scheduler and integrates with Consul, Terraform, Docker, QEMU, Fabio, Fastly and Datadog; the presenter runs a multi‑cloud Nomad demo (AWS + GCP), load‑balancing via Fastly and showing the cluster keeps serving as a whole when one cloud is killed — the demo survives killing a cloud. Claimed scale: scheduled 1,000,000 containers in under five minutes and runs thousands of hosts and tasks, with parameterised jobs and system jobs working in practice.
