Running Consul at Scale—Journey from RFC to Production

Darron Froese, Datadog

Abstract: 

We had many VMs in AWS - were ingesting millions of metrics per second - and were having pain around service discovery and quick configuration changes. This is the story of how we integrated Consul into our environment, what it helped us with, mistakes we made and some tips for successful implementation in your own environment. 10 months later, our growing cluster was using Consul to facilitate 60 second cluster-wide configuration changes and make service discovery simpler and more flexible.

Darron has been building things for the internet since the early 90s when he first discovered Mixmaster remailers and Usenet. In 2014, after running nonfiction studios for 12 years, he moved to Datadog to be a Site Reliability Engineer. Darron enjoys short build times, resilient infrastructure, clusters that keep their quorum, and breathing compressed gases underwater.
