Light-router provides the router Assisted Service Discovery

Light-router is a service that provides consumers another option to do service discovery if they cannot leverage client module provided by light-4j.

Light-router is primarily used for service discovery and technically there is client-side discovery only as it is called “service discovery” and only clients need to do that. All discovery can only exist on client-side.

The difference is that the discovery code in client or on the client host or on another static server in a data center. An additional scenario is to use light-router as BFF for SPA or Mobile.
