Further, please don’t stop at RAFT. RAFT is popular because it is easy to understand, not because it is the best way to do distributed consensus. It is non-deterministic (thus requiring odd numbers of electors), requires timeouts for liveness (thus latency can kill you), and isn’t all that good for general-purpose consensus, IMHO.
