Server-Side Discovery: The client sends a request to a load balancer or API Gateway, which then queries the service registry and forwards the request to the

ppropriate service instance. Tools like Kubernetes provide built-in service discovery

by assigning DNS names to services, and Kubernetes automatically routes traffic to

vailable service instances.

Example: In Kubernetes, a Payment Service might be exposed by a Service

resource, and requests to this service are routed to healthy pods based on their

labels.
