My first thought was to SRV records:
> C.1. Differences from the SRV RR Type
> An SRV record [SRV] can perform a function similar to that of the SVCB record, informing a client to look in a different location for a service. However, there are several differences:
> * SRV records are typically mandatory, whereas SVCB is intended to be optional when used with pre-existing protocols.
> * SRV records cannot instruct the client to switch or upgrade protocols, whereas SVCB can signal such an upgrade (e.g., to HTTP/2).
> * SRV records are not extensible, whereas SVCB and HTTPS RRs can be extended with new parameters.
> * SRV records specify a "weight" for unbalanced randomized load balancing. SVCB only supports balanced randomized load balancing, although weights could be added via a future SvcParam.
