Systems such as [Consul](https://www.consul.io/docs/index.html), [Etcd](https://coreos.com/etcd/docs/latest), and [Zookeeper](http://www.slideshare.net/sauravhaloi/introduction-to-apache-zookeeper) can help services find each other by keeping track of registered names, addresses, and ports. [Health checks](https://www.consul.io/intro/getting-started/checks.html) help verify service integrity and are often done using an [HTTP](#hypertext-transfer-protocol-http) endpoint. Both Consul and Etcd have a built in [key-value store](#key-value-store) that can be useful for storing config values and other shared data.

### Architecture Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
When designing a system, a software architect may be put before a challenging task of satisfying the criteria to satisfy such as those defined by business goals or project constraints. There exists a whole variety of concrete architecture patterns that can be used alone or in a combination. [This](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/msp-n-p/dn589799(v=pandp.10)) guide by Microsoft is a very good overview of 24 such patterns as well as an in-depth look at each. Each serves a concrete engineering purpose and is worth getting acquainted with.

### Disadvantage(s): application layer

|

* Adding an application layer with loosely coupled services requires a different approach from an architectural, operations, and process viewpoint (vs a monolithic system).
