cs733-raft

This piece of work is an implementation of Raft protocol. The reference paper can be found at https://ramcloud.stanford.edu/raft.pdf

Features

• The code is divided into three different modules namely the Connection_Handler, the SharedLog and the KVStore.
• Current implementation does not incorporate the leader election process. The server which is run first will be the default leader of Raft. Others will be followers.
• All Client communication is handled by the Leader. The leader takes consensus from the majority of server replicas before committing the changes.
• If a client tries to communicate with a non-leader server then it gets "ERR_REDIRECT host port" message where host=ip-address/name of Leader and port=port# of leader.
