Based on the simple implementation of Meteor Cluster MicroServices the doc I have this implementation for 2 services to communicate.
AppUI
export default CLUSTER_DISCOVERY_URL="mongodb://localhost:3000/meteor";
Cluster.connect(CLUSTER_DISCOVERY_URL);
Cluster.register('appui_service');
loggerService = Cluster.discoverConnection('logger_service');
LoggerService
export default CLUSTER_DISCOVERY_URL="mongodb://localhost:3300/meteor";
Cluster.connect(CLUSTER_DISCOVERY_URL);
Cluster.register('logger_service');
loggerService = Cluster.discoverConnection('appui_service');
As it is, AppiUI runs on port 3000, while LoggerService is on port 3300. When I tried, started the servers, I kept on getting this error log.

I don't understand what the discovery backend means. Secondly, I want to use Meteor's default bundled Mongo for this test, not a stand-alone Mongo, what can I do to get pass this error?
