Eureka vs Git: What are the differences?

What is Eureka? AWS Service registry for resilient mid-tier load balancing and failover. Eureka is a REST (Representational State Transfer) based service that is primarily used in the AWS cloud for locating services for the purpose of load balancing and failover of middle-tier servers.

What is Git? Fast, scalable, distributed revision control system. Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.

Eureka can be classified as a tool in the "Open Source Service Discovery" category, while Git is grouped under "Version Control System".

"Easy setup and integration with spring-cloud " is the primary reason why developers consider Eureka over the competitors, whereas "Distributed version control system" was stated as the key factor in picking Git.

Eureka and Git are both open source tools. Git with 28.2K GitHub stars and 16.3K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than Eureka with 7.98K GitHub stars and 2.2K GitHub forks.

According to the StackShare community, Git has a broader approval, being mentioned in 3932 company stacks & 4778 developers stacks; compared to Eureka, which is listed in 7 company stacks and 14 developer stacks.
