| | | | | Spanner is a rare example of a distributed database that supports externally consistent distributed transactions. Many other databases either choose not to implement distributed transactions at all, or opt for weaker consistency models because of the performance cost involved. In this post, we'll learn how Google's TrueTime API enables it to provide this guarantee at a good performance. | |

| | | Last week, I was fortunate to attend Dave Beazley's Rafting Trip course. The pretext of the course is to implement the Raft Consensus Algorithm. I'll post more about Raft, and the journey of implementing, it later. But in brief, Raft is an algorithm that lets a cluster of machines work together to reliably do something. If you had a service that needed to stay up (and stay consistent), even if some of the machines in the cluster went down, then you might want to use Raft. | ||
