Last year, I've shared how to deploy Sylius with Docker Compose. I will show you how to deploy a Sylius application on a Nomad cluster this time.

In the process of migrating our workloads from our old Hashicorp Nomad cluster to the new cluster, I encountered an issue where our Sonatype Nexus instance failed to start properly in the new environment.

In the process of migrating our Hashicorp Nomad workload to our new Nomad cluster, I also tried to simplify our CI pipelines and ran into an issue with Nomad.

Nomad version 1.5 comes with Single sign-on (SSO) and OIDC support. As we shifted to an Office 365 environment some time ago, we have been using Entra ID (previously known as Azure Active Directory) as our primary SSO solution whenever possible.

In this blog post, I've covered how our CI setup looks like to test, build and deploy Docusaurus on our Nomad cluster. However, the blog post was missing the Nomad configuration, which we'll cover in this blog post in detail.

One of my recent tasks was to run an upgrade of a production PostgreSQL database. Since we have PostgreSQL running in a Docker container in our Hashicorp Nomad environment, I assumed it would be enough to switch to a new Docker image and everything would be working fine.

Recently, we've been running into a weird problem. After restarting 2 nodes in our Nomad cluster, we could not properly access GitLab via SSH anymore. Web access was working fine, also cloning via https:// worked, but not via SSH which is what most of our developers use by default.

Earlier this year we decided to test Renovate to manage automated dependency updates in our self-hosted GitLab environment. Being able to run Renovate in our own environment and configure it to our needs made a lot of sense. Since we run our internal tooling on a Nomad cluster, we had to configure a Nomad job for Renovate.
