I was always a huge fan of SRV records; it gives you the ability to easily and quickly shape traffic centrally when clients and protocol are not under your control. However, I found very few allies in this. Most people that I talked to disliked the fact that networking/DNS teams were organizationally far removed from application teams, and often imposed slow, onerous change processes. I don’t see any reason why that will have changed, even though my experience is 15+ years ago.
