  • PM2

    Node.js Production Process Manager with a built-in Load Balancer.

    What we wanted was something like a supercharged pm2, but multi-node with good support for both docker and binaries.

  • helm

    The Kubernetes Package Manager

    Helm templates streamlined our deployments, but downtime issues persisted.

  • hcl

    HCL is the HashiCorp configuration language.

    In Kubernetes, we define deployments via YAML files. Whereas Nomad leverages HCL (HashiCorp Configuration Language).

  • hclfmt

    Discontinued Format and prettify HCL files

    Format hcl files: hclfmt

  • go

    The Go programming language

    This language, built using Go, proved to be surprisingly user-friendly for developers like ourselves.
