Consul is distributed, highly available, and extremely scalable. On the other hand, zetcd is detailed as "Serve the Apache Zookeeper API but back it with an etcd cluster". A ZooKeeper "personality" for etcd. Point a ZooKeeper client at zetcd to dispatch the operations on an etcd cluster. Protocol encoding and decoding heavily based on go-zookeeper.
