Lablup attended the 2024 Open Source Contribution Academy (OSSCA) as 'Raftify'. Gyubong Lee, a software engineer at Lablup, participated as a mentor. Here's a look at what they did with Raftify at OSSCA, and how Raftify has changed as a result of their experience.

Part 2 of our Raft deep dive: how tikv/raft-rs snapshots cluster state and restores it from logs and snapshots on restart, including snapshot transfer to new nodes.

Walking through the tikv/raft-rs code to see how state machines in distributed systems actually synchronize and behave, across a few concrete scenarios.

Introducing raftify, a high-level Raft framework built over a year for the Backend.AI manager, with an example that implements a distributed key-value store in under 300 lines.
