I also found that Nomad looked promising for VM orchestration. In my case I was specifically looking to run Firecracker VMs. Unfortunately I found the Firecracker community driver [1] to be difficult to work with when setting up networking beyond a simple "hello world". It does not play well with Nomad's CNI plugin [2] and I could not get a working setup where Nomad, CNI and the guest would agree on an IP.

The firecracker driver is a community one, however, and the offical Qemu driver is most likely more polished. Did not try that one since it did not match my needs.

Has anyone had success with the FC driver here?
