Nomad vs. Hadoop YARN

YARN, or Yet Another Resource Negotiator, is a system in Hadoop for both resource management and job scheduling. It is used to allow multiple Hadoop frameworks like MapReduce and Spark to run on the same hardware.

Nomad is focused on both long-lived services and batch workloads, and is designed to be a platform for running large scale applications generally instead of specifically for Hadoop.
