WhatsApp/waraft

This system is a distributed consensus library implementing the RAFT algorithm in Erlang, designed to manage replicated state through a pluggable architecture. It provides configurable storage and logging backends, allowing users to swap between in-memory and filesystem-based implementations. The core server manages distributed communication and request queuing to handle concurrency and backpressure effectively.

About this page

  • The description of this project is derived from its own commit history, not from its README.
  • The score is its highest published measurement, taken on 20 July 2026 at a pinned commit. It is not a live figure and does not change until the project is measured again.
  • Measured at commit 014978668c — the exact code this score is about.
  • Scored under rubric rubric-2026.08.17. Score the same commit under that rubric and you get the same number.
