Summary

HashiCorp Nomad is a versatile cluster management tool that extends cloud-native benefits to a wide range of infrastructures, accommodating applications beyond just cloud-native environments. Unlike more complex clustering tools such as Kubernetes, Nomad offers a simpler and more flexible approach, making it appealing to organizations dealing with diverse infrastructure, from bare metal and on-prem virtual machines to cloud services. It allows DevOps teams to efficiently distribute applications and services across various platforms. However, managing dependencies on third-party software remains a challenge, and this is where JFrog Artifactory complements Nomad by providing a robust repository management solution that ensures builds are repeatable, safe, and efficient. Together, Nomad and Artifactory create a seamless application infrastructure experience.
