Docker Compose

Docker Compose vs Nomad: which is simpler for orchestration?

Answer:

Docker Compose is simpler for single-host container setups: one YAML file, one command, no cluster to run. Nomad is simpler than Kubernetes but still asks for cluster-level thinking, since it exists specifically to schedule workloads across many machines and datacenters. Nomad servers reach agreement through the Raft consensus protocol, and HashiCorp's own guidance is to run three or five server nodes per region.
