Yong Tang commented on MESOS-3797:
----------------------------------
Replacing Mesos with Consul could be part of MESOS-3574, and a short term
solution before the implementation of (no-dependency) leader election in Mesos.
> Support replacing Zookeeper with Consul
> ---------------------------------------

> Key: MESOS-3797
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3797
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: leader election
> Reporter: Yong Tang
>
> Currently Mesos only support Zookeeper for leader election. While Zookeeper
> has been widely used it is not actively developed and the configuration of
> Zookeeper is often cumbersome or difficult.
> There is already an ongoing MESOS-1806 which would replace Zookeeper with
> etcd. It would be great if Mesos could support replacing Zookeeper with
> Consul for its ease of deployment.
> While MESOS-3574 proposed Mesos to do its own leader election and failure
> detection, replacing Zookeeper with Consul as a short term solution will
> really benefit a lot of existing Mesos users that want to avoid the
> dependency of Zookeeper deployment.
