This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/Traefik

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Registrar

    Discontinued Registrar automatically registers and deregisters applications or services to a registry like Consul by monitoring the Docker daemon or watching a static config file

  • I've created a open source project that can help you register all containers on a machine to consul if you are not using something like kubernetes or nomad. You can find the project on github. You can run the application as a container on each server and it will register all containers with consul.

  • NomadJobUpdater

    Converts a hcl file to json and posts it to the nomad managers to update/add a job.

  • Side note: If you want to auto deploy nomad jobs using a CI tool like gitlab CI or Jenkins you find you can not push a nomad job as a hcl file directly to it's API. I've also created a small open source project for this which you can find on github as well.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Nomad

    Nomad is an easy-to-use, flexible, and performant workload orchestrator that can deploy a mix of microservice, batch, containerized, and non-containerized applications. Nomad is easy to operate and scale and has native Consul and Vault integrations.

  • Since then i moved to ECS (aws only) and Nomad (Open source from Hashicorp). Both very good and very simple solutions. I can highly recommend using something like Nomad or even Kubernetes for your use case, but be aware Kubernetes has a much bigger learning curve (and needs way more infrastructure that the nomad setup).
