    From the README

    Nomad is a simple and flexible workload orchestrator to deploy and manage containers (docker, podman), non-containerized applications (executable, Java), and virtual machines (qemu) across on-prem and clouds at scale.

    Nomad is supported on Linux, Windows, and macOS. A commercial version of Nomad, Nomad Enterprise, is also available.

    See Developer: Getting Started for instructions on setting up a local Nomad cluster for non-production use.

    Optionally, find Terraform manifests for bringing up a development Nomad cluster on a public cloud in the terraform directory.
