Jepsen is about consistency and doesn't address most of the things the paper is focused on, real world production things.

- m0zg 8y agoIn a distributed system consistency _is_ "real world production things", unless you want to lose customer data.
- zzzcpan 8y agoIf only that was true. Consistency is a design constraint, not a production problem. Making things work well in real world in production is the hard part, this is what distributed systems are actually about. And I like that about Aurora, focusing on the hard part.
- sethev 8y agoJepsen has done a good job of showing that a lot of systems that focused on the hard part failed to do the "easy" part.
