What Hacker News says
3 sourcesLooking forward to Nomad Packs, they where announced with their 1.2 beta[0]. I've really been missing something like k8s-at-home[1] for homelab Nomad setups. Don't know if they will become as versatile as Helm charts since Nomad is less of an abstraction than Kubernetes.

In Nomad vs. KubernetesCoincidentally my home server is also named Hydra, running Nomad on CoreOS/Flatcar. I've had this setup for years now running without issue (unless I managed to mess it up myself by, for example, changing the IP and not following proper procedures to restore the Raft cluster).
Recently I deployed K3s on the same node to add some new workloads, but now that I want to move those workloads to Nomad to get rid of the cpu and memory usage of K8s. I'm running into what is becoming my main problem with Nomad that I never thought I had.
With all it's complexities, getting something to run on K8s is as simple as adding a Helm chart name to a Terraform config file and running apply. Maybe I need to set a value or volume, but that's it. Everything below is pretty much standardised.
With Nomad however, it's benefit of doing only one thing very well a

lso means that all the other things like ingress and networking need to be figured out yourself. And since there is no standard regarding these everyone invents their own, preventing something like k8s-at-home [0] to emerge. Also K8s is pretty agnostic in container backend where Nomad needs configurations for every driver.
I think writing your own Helm charts for everything would suck more than writing the Nomad configs. Though a lot could be automatically generated for both of them. But I'm missing a community repository of sorts for Nomad.
