But shouldn't this be solved with Multicast DNS [1] and DNS based service discovery [2]?

Sounds to me that your .internal TLD is causing a lot of headache and sticking to avahi and .local would be easier?

What we deploy has to work with any reasonable application; we build to the lowest common denominator interface.

People on this thread have a lot of ideas about what they'd do if they got to be the sysadmin for every container running on our fleet.
