Ask HN: Nomad Alternatives for Medium Business?

2 pointskosolam3 comments

The base requirements are to run our own infrastructure on hetzner dedicated servers. Also the apps must run in vms (not containers). I wonder if there is out there something that could be recommended as a stack that wouldn’t be too hard to implement… Seen here a nice post with kuma+nomad+firecracker… What would you recommend?

Nomad + Consul (service mesh) + Vault (secrets) + qemu driver. Provision vms using cloud-init and you should be gtg.

Otherwise you can try giving KubeVirt a go. This will have a steeper learning curve, but it is a good product.

Nomad has a QEMU driver. I would really question these requirements, though; they remind me of this conversation: https://twitter.com/swardley/status/1422260899251953668

You are welcome to question the requirements
