mDNS Bridging

For clients which need to discover the services of a Query API, but operate in software such as web browsers where mDNS is unsupported, it is suggested that a bridging service is employed to present the mDNS (and merged unicast DNS) data via an HTTP service (or similar).

Failure Modes

The NMOS Registration and Query APIs are designed to be highly available and support failover without any visible consequence for a user operating a system which depends upon them. Recommended handling of common error codes and scenarios is covered in Behaviour.
