Is HashiCorp Nomad worth learning?

Should you learn about HashiCorp Nomad? Does it have the right stuff to unseat Kubernetes? In this video I'll share my thoughts on what Nomad is, where it excels, and how to get the most out of using it.

got interested in nomad because of its ease

Nomad is great but it's not fair to not mention that out of the box, nomad doesn't provide services that you would expect from an orchestrated environnement engine like K8s, meshing, auto scaling or secret management. You have to use consul at least so it's an other piece of software to manage.

What's a console cluster? I didn't get what you were talking about in that section, at all.

A bit more deep view would be nice to see.

I think at this point there's too many tools. Companies are offering one tool that masters two major opertions, But eventually dose everything 😂😂😂 And Another tool which supposedly dose two diffrent things also dose everything. So you have 5-6 Tools that are very complex that are capable of doing a lot. this extremly expensive to manage them. the tool itself can be open sourse or paid but in order to manage it you need people.
