Indeed, in the paper they're comparing MultiPaxos to Raft. EDIT: For others, here's a very comprehensive (as of ~2018) review of Paxos-related distributed consensus algorithms with an exposition for each one: https://vadosware.io/post/paxosmon-gotta-concensus-them-all/ https://vadosware.io/post/paxosmon-gotta-concensus-them-all/ That's 17 in all, excluding the original Paxos paper. IMO, it should be linked anywhere Paxos is discussed. The link has been posted twice before by others on HN, but unfortunately hasn't seen any discussion, perhaps because it speaks for itself.
