    Consul is often used primarily as a service discovery mechanism, especially with a DNS interface. Apache ZooKeeper is primarily used as a real-time key/value store, with leader election and peer discovery (not service discovery) as contributing/supporting features. Also, ZooKeeper doesn't have a DNS interface.
