I've worked on a fargate + lambda migration to Nomad. At this point I definitely would have preferred to have gone with k8s. Nomad is still relatively complex, to the point where K8s is only somewhat more complex but made up with a bigger community and more tooling and features.
Features I miss: - ephemeral containers - dns integration with cloud providers - Up to date tutorials/examples, especially complex examples - Better out of the box validation/linting

Migrated from k8s to nomad. Did not miss anything, but apparently nomad can't do VM live migrations. It is not a part of our workflow when working with VM's, but still might be an issue for some.

Not a migration, but the team chose k8s because it had better docs and they were able to get much further with k8s than the others in the same amount of time. (they compared 4 options)
I used both in the past, and for self-hosted solution I also prefer the simplicity of Nomad, but I realize that Kubernetes has much more functionality, so I'm wondering if there is something that we will realize that we are missing once we start using Nomad for production workloads.
So my question is targeted at people who used Nomad in production, and later found themselves migrating to Kubernetes, what is your story? and what functionality did you miss the most that pushed you to move to Kubernetes. Blogs and articles are also welcome.
