Using Raft in Rust
summary
Concrete implementation detail and outcomes appear: Raft implemented in Rust provides a focused consensus crate inspired by etcd-raft, exposes a storage API with about six core functions, drives ticks every ~100ms for elections, and uses majority quorum leader election and log replication. TiKV integrates this crate, persisting Raft logs in RocksDB, supporting membership change and optimizations, and reports working in production as the consensus layer for a distributed transactional key-value store.
