Count me in, I'm also eagerly waiting for the cluster feature.
Have you considered relying on Zookeeper for the gossip heavy-lifting?
Yes it's java (ugh) and would add an external dependency (ugh), but it's battle-tested and could perhaps save you from re-inventing such a complex wheel?
- jrockway 16y agoConsidering they won't use a library for the networking, I doubt they are going to add a Java dependency for config management.
- moe 16y agoIt would not be a java dependency but rather a component dependency (you talk to zookeeper over the network). Zookeeper is also not just config management, it's state management. It helps to solve some of the really nasty problems of distributed state, e.g. achieving quorum and dealing with split brain situations. However, it's been a while since I read up on the planned redis-cluster design, so I'm not sure how they are tackling these issues.
