Summary

Nomad Enterprise introduces audit logging to gain insights into user actions on a Nomad cluster and fulfill compliance requirements. Audit logging is implemented at the HTTP API level, with each request containing multiple audit log entries for different stages of the request lifecycle. The delivery guarantee mode can be set to either enforced or best-effort, allowing operators to choose between fault tolerance and risk acceptability. Configuration options are available to customize audit logging, including file rotation and filters to exclude certain operations from being logged. The audit log contains detailed information about each request, including authentication data, request metadata, and response details. Nomad Enterprise Audit Logging is now available as part of the Governance & Policy Enterprise Module in beta for Nomad 0.11, with feedback and testing opportunities for practitioners.
