What Hacker News says
2 sourcesHeh, thanks.
The mailing list suggests http://github.com/4ad/doozer and http://github.com/4ad/doozerd are being maintained as forks of the original. Or there's Zookeeper. Or brew your own central lookup server using 0mq that does the same job of "set a key, get a key, notify subscribers when it changes". It's a single point of failure, but since the system will run fine without it (only lacking topology updates) it's not a hugely problematic one.
