Nomad Integration

[brettwilcox]

Summary

Nomad is an orchestration tool for deploying and managing applications. It is flexible and can run either containerized or non-containerized workloads.

Why I opened this issue

I would like to understand Nomad and it's advantages or disadvantages over K8s. Ofter using both orchestrators, Nomad is clearly the easier system to manage.
