Cloud Map Service

Cloud Map Service in AWS Service Discovery lets you create and manage custom names for your application resources. It provides a registry where services can be discovered dynamically by other applications using DNS or API calls. This helps with service-to-service communication, automatic discovery, and health-aware routing without hardcoding endpoints.
