The document discusses requirements and considerations for selecting open source tools for container orchestration and runtime. It evaluates Ansible, Terraform, Puppet, Kubernetes, and Nomad for orchestration and decides on Nomad for its ease of use and low learning curve. It also selects Consul for service discovery. The document outlines the installation process and architecture, showing how Consul, Nomad, Traefik, Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, and Minio would integrate together. It provides version details and screenshots of the setup. It suggests next steps like full testing and Raspberry Pi support. Managed options from Devfactory are also discussed.
