Thanks Michael, this makes sense.. I do have a couple of questions If you could help me out here. 1). When using dns I am assuming we have to write a script to change the mapped IP address of the service when a failure is detected. 2.) If you have used a DNS service before, then can you help me out with the software you are using. I can see consul which provides dns based api for service registry. Thank you in advance :).

Ahh yes. This is really easy within one of the cloud providers environments (e.g. AWS, with route53). Less so when you are managing the DNS server yourself. There is a standard protocol for interacting with DNS servers defined in rfc3007.
