Building a Distributed Consensus System with Raft in Go: A Step-by-Step Guide
Introduction to Distributed Consensus and Raft In the world of distributed systems, achieving consensus among nodes is a critical task. It ensures that all nodes in a cluster agree on a single state, even in the face of failures. One of the most popular and understandable consensus algorithms is Raft, designed to be more approachable than its predecessor, Paxos. In this article, we’ll delve into the world of Raft and implement a distributed consensus system using Go. ...
