raftsystem
Raftsystem is a class of distributed systems that employs the Raft consensus algorithm to replicate a state machine across multiple machines, providing fault tolerance and strong consistency. In a Raftsystem, a cluster maintains a replicated log and applies commands to a deterministic state machine, so that all non-failing nodes agree on the same sequence of state transitions.
Core concepts of the Raft algorithm underpinning a Raftsystem include leader election, log replication, and safety
Architecture and components typically found in a Raftsystem include a cluster of nodes with roles such as
Applications and use cases for Raftsystem span distributed databases, key-value stores, configuration services, and any service
