# Bootstrapping a Nomad Cluster
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Nomad models infrastructure into regions and datacenters. Servers reside at the
|
||
|
|
regional layer and manage all state and scheduling decisions for that region.
|
||
|
|
Regions contain multiple datacenters, and clients are registered to a single
|
||
|
|
datacenter (and thus a region that contains that datacenter). For more details on
|
||
|
|
the architecture of Nomad and how it models infrastructure see the [architecture
|
||
|
|
page](/docs/internals/architecture.html).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are two strategies for bootstrapping a Nomad cluster:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. <a href="/guides/cluster/automatic.html">Automatic bootstrapping</a>
|
||
|
|
1. <a href="/guides/cluster/manual.html">Manual bootstrapping</a>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please refer to the specific documentation links above or in the sidebar for
|
||
|
|
more detailed information about each strategy.
