OpenStack Service Discovery
We need a way for services to register themselves and be discovered (instead of fixing ports for each). Keystone already has a proposed workflow for service registration and we have an assigned IANA port (35357).
LOCAL MACHINE: This blueprint proposes that by default Keystone starts up and exposes the Admin API on 35357 (Admin API is a superset of the Service API) allowing services on the local machine to find it and register themselves and their
endpoints (especially if they are picking up ports dynamically). This is a
simple use case for installing on one machine.
MULTIPLE-MACHINES: Keystone registers a DNS SRV record (and potentially
listen to broadcasts to 35357) to be discoverable by other machines on the LAN or on a remote network.
