Detailed Comparison
Consul is a tool for service discovery and configuration. Consul is distributed, highly available, and extremely scalable. | Seneca is a toolkit for organizing the business logic of your app. You can break down your app into "stuff that happens", rather than focusing on data models or managing dependencies. |
Service Discovery - Consul makes it simple for services to register themselves and to discover other services via a DNS or HTTP interface. External services such as SaaS providers can be registered as well.;Health Checking - Health Checking enables Consul to quickly alert operators about any issues in a cluster. The integration with service discovery prevents routing traffic to unhealthy hosts and enables service level circuit breakers.;Key/Value Storage - A flexible key/value store enables storing dynamic configuration, feature flagging, coordination, leader election and more. The simple HTTP API makes it easy to use anywhere.;Multi-Datacenter - Consul is built to be datacenter aware, and can support any number of regions without complex configuration. | pattern matching: a wonderfully flexible way to handle business requirements;transport independence: how messages get to the right server is not something you should have to worry about;maturity: 5 years in production (before we called it micro-services), but was once taken out by lightning;deep and wide ecosystem of plugins |
