We use capped exponential backoff in several places in the code when handling failures. The code we've copy-and-pasted all over has a check to see if the backoff is greater than the limit, but this check happens after the bitshift and we always increment the number of attempts. This causes an overflow with a fairly small number of failures (ex. at one place I tested it occurs after only 24 iterations), resulting in a negative backoff which then never recovers. The backoff becomes a tight loop consuming resources and/or DoS'ing a Nomad RPC handler or an external API such as Vault. Note this doesn't occur in places where we cap the number of iterations so the loop breaks (usually to return an error), so long as the number of iterations is reasonable. Introduce a helper with a check on the cap before the bitshift to avoid overflow in all places this can occur. Fixes: #18199 Co-authored-by: stswidwinski <stan.swidwinski@gmail.com> |

Nomad
Nomad is a simple and flexible workload orchestrator to deploy and manage containers (docker, podman), non-containerized applications (executable, Java), and virtual machines (qemu) across on-prem and clouds at scale.
Nomad is supported on Linux, Windows, and macOS. A commercial version of Nomad, Nomad Enterprise, is also available.

- Tutorials: HashiCorp Learn
- Forum: Discuss
Nomad provides several key features:
-
Deploy Containers and Legacy Applications: Nomad’s flexibility as an orchestrator enables an organization to run containers, legacy, and batch applications together on the same infrastructure. Nomad brings core orchestration benefits to legacy applications without needing to containerize via pluggable task drivers.
-
Simple & Reliable: Nomad runs as a single binary and is entirely self contained - combining resource management and scheduling into a single system. Nomad does not require any external services for storage or coordination. Nomad automatically handles application, node, and driver failures. Nomad is distributed and resilient, using leader election and state replication to provide high availability in the event of failures.
-
Device Plugins & GPU Support: Nomad offers built-in support for GPU workloads such as machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI). Nomad uses device plugins to automatically detect and utilize resources from hardware devices such as GPU, FPGAs, and TPUs.
-
Federation for Multi-Region, Multi-Cloud: Nomad was designed to support infrastructure at a global scale. Nomad supports federation out-of-the-box and can deploy applications across multiple regions and clouds.
-
Proven Scalability: Nomad is optimistically concurrent, which increases throughput and reduces latency for workloads. Nomad has been proven to scale to clusters of 10K+ nodes in real-world production environments.
-
HashiCorp Ecosystem: Nomad integrates seamlessly with Terraform, Consul, Vault for provisioning, service discovery, and secrets management.
Quick Start
Testing
See Learn: Getting Started for instructions on setting up a local Nomad cluster for non-production use.
Optionally, find Terraform manifests for bringing up a development Nomad cluster on a public cloud in the terraform directory.
Production
See Learn: Nomad Reference Architecture for recommended practices and a reference architecture for production deployments.
Documentation
Full, comprehensive documentation is available on the Nomad website: https://www.nomadproject.io/docs
Guides are available on HashiCorp Learn.
Roadmap
A timeline of major features expected for the next release or two can be found in the Public Roadmap.
This roadmap is a best guess at any given point, and both release dates and projects in each release are subject to change. Do not take any of these items as commitments, especially ones later than one major release away.
