Having looked at both Mesos (with its various frameworks) and Kubernetes, this immediately looks more attractive to me.<p>No external dependencies (which arguably simplifies ops), competetive feature set, a nice job language, the fact that Docker is optional, polished documentation, etc. Having used some of Hashicorp's other products, I've grown to expect a level of quality and pragmatism that seems to present here, too. Not being JVM-based is a big plus in my book, too.<p>How much production use has Nomad seen, I wonder?
