Consensus Algorithms in Distributed Systems (Theory and Practice)
summary
Reviews core distributed consensus algorithms (Paxos, Raft, ZAB) and their open-source implementations (ZooKeeper, etcd), and examines how they are used in systems like Solr, Kafka and HBase. Covers theoretical frameworks (CAP theorem, FLP impossibility) and discusses performance, correctness, practical difficulties and limitations of these algorithms.
