There is simply no way they&amp;#x27;ll build a community around nomad 1&amp;#x2F;2 as big as either of the aforementioned even if the software is really good.</text></comment>
<story><title>Nomad, a cluster manager and scheduler</title><url>https://www.hashicorp.com/blog/nomad.html</url></story><parent_chain></parent_chain><comment><author>cpitman</author><text>This one is interesting to me. I&amp;#x27;ve been a big proponent of Hashicorp&amp;#x27;s other tooling, but this seems like an area that other projects are already addressing (and doing well in). Choice is great, but I think I would have preferred if they joined up with Kubernetes&amp;#x2F;Mesos&amp;#x2F;etc.&lt;p&gt;Also, their messaging seems a little ingenious. Otto talks about how important it is to support microservice development and deployment, but Nomad lists as a con that Kubernetes has too many separately deployed and composed services.&lt;p&gt;PS, I do work for Red Hat, so maybe I&amp;#x27;m a little biased.</text></comment>
