Ask HN: Service Discovery Using Route53 vs. Consul?

2 points by albertlie 8 years ago · 0 comments · 1 min read

Hi all,

I'm exploring options for doing service discovery for system in my company that used micro-service arhictecture. Mostly, we're using AWS for our stack.

I found out that Route53 can provide service discovery for AWS https://docs.aws.amazon.com/Route53/latest/APIReference/overview-service-discovery.html

But I wonder the reason some companies (e.g. Stripe) using something like Consul https://stripe.com/blog/service-discovery-at-stripe

Anyone can share their experience and provide the difference between those two?

Thanks
