#2For context, Raft is the consensus algorithm that powers awesome distributed systems like Docker, CoreOS, Kubernetes, Consul, and more!

#3I'd ask:
It seems there are a lot of implementations of Raft, few of which are entirely complete (CoreOS's etcd seems to be the best). Perhaps this is the downside of the emphasis on ease of implementation, vs creating 'golden libraries'. Which implementations does he think are the best in each language?
PS What is the meetup?

FYI, there's no Raft in Docker (AFAIK), and CoreOS and Kubernetes both have Raft via etcd.

Cool, thanks for the question!

Whoops, I must have heard that wrong. I thought Swarm uses it. +1 for the clarification.

Ah, you're right - sorry! Docker Swarm can use etcd or consul, both of which use Raft: https://docs.docker.com/swarm/discovery/
You may want to use consul to the list!
