.NEXT Raft Suite

.NEXT Raft Suite is a set of libraries for building clustered microservices:

• DotNext.Net.Cluster contains cluster programming model, transport-agnostic implementation of Raft algorithm, TCP and UDP transport
• DotNext.AspNetCore.Cluster is a concrete implementation of Raft algorithm on top of DotNext.Net.Cluster library for building ASP.NET Core applications. The transport for Raft messages is HTTP 1.1 and HTTP/2. TLS is also supported.

The list of supported features:

• Network transport: TCP, UDP, HTTP 1.1, HTTP/2
• High-performance, general-purpose Persistent Write-Ahead Log supporting log compaction
• Replication of log entries across cluster nodes
• Tight integration with ASP.NET Core framework
• Friendly to Docker/LXC/Windows containers, e.g. port mapping between the host and the container
• Everything is extensible
  • Custom write-ahead log
  • Custom network transport
