Raft #17

@decanus

Description

@decanus

Once finished researching Paxos (#1), it only makes sense to further look at consensus protocols that it inspired such as raft.

The main goal of this thread is to research raft and create a general understanding which should later be summarized in a research post.

Questions

  • How does raft work?
  • What sets raft apart from paxos?
  • Where is raft used?
  • What are rafts strengths?
