Description

Eureka, consul and zookeeper have very similar properties for things like hostname, ipaddress, port, preferIpAddress, service or app name, instance id, metadata, etc...

It may be worth having a common set of properties under spring.cloud.discovery and then each can have custom properties.

It may be that this is just an abstract class and downstream projects use spring.cloud.<project>.discovery as namespace.

Maybe migrate netflix from eureka.instance to spring.cloud.netflix.discovery.

Research direction

The issue proposes common discovery properties under spring.cloud.discovery for Eureka, Consul, and Zookeeper, with possible Netflix migration. Start by comparing the existing discovery configuration properties in those implementations. Done would require an agreed common abstraction and namespace strategy, plus any required migration, but the issue names no files or tests.
