The thing is, I know a lot of companies using it at nationwide scale (non-startups). I think there's a reason you are getting downvoted.

Anyways, Service Discovery like this is less niche than containers are. If containers are still niche for you, then there you go.

Well, so are you, your comments are even so grey I can barely read them anymore (and I can’t downvote you).

Regarding the rest: Containers are far less niche than Consul is. For service discovery, the market isn’t nearly as monopolized as containers are. And containers are far more used than consul is – most places I’ve seen build their own service discovery systems, or hardcode a main node and then have services in containers register with that, etc.

While for containers, at the moment, there’s almost only docker, due to the ecosystem.
