raftbased
Raftbased is an adjective used to describe distributed systems, libraries, or architectures that are built on the Raft consensus algorithm. Raft is a leader-based algorithm for managing a replicated log and maintaining a consistent replicated state machine across a cluster of servers. Systems described as raftbased typically use Raft's mechanisms for leader election, log replication, safety, and membership changes to provide fault-tolerant coordination and data consistency.
Raft gained popularity as a more understandable alternative to Paxos and is commonly used in distributed key-value
Advantages of raftbased designs include clear leadership semantics, strong consistency under normal conditions, and a relatively
Raftbased software exists as standalone libraries and integrated components in many open-source projects, and architects choose
