Hi Eric, You might want to try JSON-based service registry which reloads the changes into the in-memory representation when the JSON file definition changes. It's lightweight, human-readable, and would support the use cases that you have described. https://github.com/Unicon/cas-addons/blob/master/src/main/java/net/unicon/cas/addons/serviceregistry/JsonServiceRegistryDao.groovy
Cheers, Dmitriy.
