Service Discovery on Lattice with Consul

on YouTube ↗29m

" summary

Shows how Lattice (Diego scheduler, Docker containers) uses Consul for service discovery by registering MySQL services in Consul and demonstrating failover when one of two masters goes down. Explains Consul’s DNS and HTTP APIs, script and TTL health checks, and Raft-based quorum (recommendation: 3 or 5 Consul servers for quorum). Presents an end-to-end setup on Lattice, details actual health-check mechanics and how Consul reroutes clients to healthy hosts.
