 Netflix Eureka |
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.
At Netflix, Eureka is used for the following purposes apart from playing a critical part in mid-tier load balancing.
- For aiding Netflix Asgard – an open source service which makes cloud deployments easier, in
- Fast rollback of versions in case of problems avoiding the re-launch of 100’s of instances which could take a long time.
- In rolling pushes, for avoiding propagation of a new version to all instances in case of problems.
- For our cassandra deployments to take instances out of traffic for maintenance.
- For our memcached caching services to identify the list of nodes in the ring.
- For carrying other additional application specific metadata about services for various other reasons.
