Gossip Protocols

Opened this issue ยท 6 comments

I find Gossip Protocols have very little information about them. The information is typically within implementations such as Riak and Cassandra, for example. Even though Gossip Protocols are extremely powerful once understood, even though certain trade-offs are made (higher-availability while sacrificing consistency).

Although, Gossip Protocols vary quite a bit, so it might be hard to display the gossip protocol -- like Raft; you'd have to show a variation of sort.

@thehydroimpulse I like the idea of showcasing gossip protocols. I need to read up on them a little more first. :)

@benbjohnson fyi Riak has an interesting implementation (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4cCUTPU8GI); they started with the following the paper but improved upon it.
