Thanks. Yes this explanation is something I can agree with. It does not provide monotonic reads.

That question doesn’t make much sense. If you have quorum then eventually repairs will kick in and will get replicated everywhere. So it can tolerate up to N/2 failures just like o…

Instead of doing all this complicated thing, how about simply following a Raft-like consensus protocol with the minor modification that the leader won't include a write op its read…

I am not a PM, so at least I found this definition and mental model useful. Why is no one commenting on this answer!

Both the documents look great and I want to read them. But, how useful is it for me to read about NetBSD if I am interested in details of inner workings of Linux kernel? Do the con…

Even in AWS, its not a direct paper knock-off.

In practice, for the systems where I built a replication system from the ground up, once you factor in all the performance, scale, storage layer and networking implications, this P…

What's a way to implement this in practice? Does this article imply that if 1 core was writing the value of a variable (without any locking) and other cores were simply reading the…

If "Cloud = lower upfront, higher long term, but no ceiling. On-prem = higher upfront, lower long term, but ceiling" is true, then how come the revenue of cloud companies keeps goi…
