Thanks for sharing this!

With the mantl project https://github.com/CiscoCloud/microservices-infrastructure we feed mesos task information into consul.

We've looked a lot a load balancing and feel that rewriting haproxy files dynamically can lead to brittle behavior.

Our current setup is we use traefik https://github.com/emilevauge/traefik to proxy marathon tasks.

Haproxy 1.6 includes some dynamic dns lookups http://blog.haproxy.com/2015/10/14/whats-new-in-haproxy-1-6/

That's nice feature, we would need to look into it, however DNS A or AA does not contain port information limiting us to the 'default' ports.

What about giving the ability to HAProxy to perform the SRV requests directly???

That's not possible right now
