Operations and Development Tracks
Operating Nomad
This section covers features operators will need to understand to build and maintain Nomad clusters.
Load Balancer Integrations
There are multiple approaches to load balancing within a Nomad cluster. Here we explore the most popular strategies.
Load Balancer Deployment Considerations
20 minThere are a few approaches you can consider when deploying your load balancers for performance and HA
Load Balancing with Fabio
20 minFabio integrates natively with Consul and provides rich features with an optional Web UI.
Load Balancing with HAProxy
20 minHAProxy natively integrates with service discovery data from Consul.
Load Balancing with NGINX
20 minNGINX pairs with Nomad's template stanza to allow for dynamic updates to its load balancing configuration.
Load Balancing with Traefik
20 minTraefik natively integrates with Consul using the Consul Catalog Provider.
Stateful Workloads
This track will explore techniques to run jobs on Nomad that require access to persistent storage.
Stateful Workloads Overview
3 minIt is possible to deploy and consume stateful workloads in Nomad. Nomad can integrate with various storage solutions such as Portworx and REX-Ray.
Stateful Workloads with Nomad Host Volumes
20 minThis guide walks you through configuring a host volume and then deploying a MySQL workload that uses it for persistent storage.
Stateful Workloads with Portworx
20 minYou will deploy a MySQL database which uses the Portworx Docker-volume driver to enable persistent volumes.
Governance and Policy
Learn the Nomad objects necessary to operate Nomad securely in a multi-team environment. Explore Nomad Enterprise features such as namespaces, resource quotas, and Sentinel.
Governance & Policy on Nomad
3 minLearn the Nomad objects necessary to operate Nomad securely in a multi-team environment. Explore Nomad Enterprise features such as namespaces, resource quotas, and Sentinel.
Namespaces
8 minNomad Enterprise provides support for namespaces, which allow jobs and their associated objects to be segmented from each other and other users of the cluster.
Resource Quotas
8 minNomad Enterprise provides support for resource quotas, which allow operators to restrict the aggregate resource usage of namespaces.
Sentinel Policies
8 minSentinel allows operators to express their policies as code, and have their policies automatically enforced.
