About:
Consul is a distributed, highly available service mesh solution that enables service discovery, configuration, and segmentation. It provides a control plane for dynamic infrastructure, allowing services to locate and communicate with each other securely. Its key value store supports dynamic configuration updates and cluster coordination.
Key Features:
  • Service Discovery & Health Checking
  • Secure Service Mesh with mTLS
  • Key/Value Store for Configuration
  • Multi-Datacenter & Multi-Cloud Support
Use Cases:
  • Automating network infrastructure for microservices
  • Securing service-to-service communication in Kubernetes
  • Centralized dynamic configuration management
Alternatives:
  • etcd – Key-value store only; lacks native service mesh features
  • Kubernetes – Orchestrates containers but relies on add-ons for full service mesh
