Netreap
A Cilium controller for Nomad clusters that manages endpoints, syncs policies, and cleans up orphaned resources.
What is Netreap?
Netreap is a Cilium controller implementation built for Nomad clusters, enabling Cilium's advanced networking and security features in non-Kubernetes environments. It manages Cilium endpoints, synchronizes network policies via Consul, and cleans up orphaned resources to maintain a healthy network mesh. The project solves the problem of integrating Cilium with Nomad, where the standard Cilium Operator is tightly coupled to Kubernetes.
DevOps engineers and platform teams running Nomad clusters who need Cilium's container networking capabilities, including network policy enforcement and service mesh features.
Developers choose Netreap because it provides a lightweight, purpose-built alternative to the Kubernetes-only Cilium Operator, allowing Nomad users to leverage Cilium's powerful networking stack without Kubernetes overhead. Its simplicity and direct integration with Nomad's job lifecycle make it easier to deploy and manage in Nomad environments.
