How does this differ from http://www.serfdom.io/ http://www.serfdom.io/, another HashiCorp product?

    "Serf is a service discovery and orchestration tool..." "... However, Serf does not provide any high-level features such as service discovery..." Hm...

      That can probably be worded better. Serf operates at a node level abstraction, while Consul operates at a service level. In fact, Serf is used in Consul to power the discovery of other nodes.

  They operate at different levels of abstraction. It appears like Consul offers a superset of the features that Serf does. It also includes a consistent key-value store based on Raft, which is also really cool.
