SOFAJRaft is a production-level, high-performance Java implementation based on the RAFT consistency algorithm that supports MULTI-RAFT-GROUP for high-load, low-latency scenarios. With SOFAJRaft you can focus on your business area. SOFAJRaft handles all RAFT-related technical challenges. SOFAJRaft is very user-friendly, which provides several examples, making it easy to understand and use.

• Leader election and priority-based semi-deterministic leader election
• Log replication and recovery
• Read-only member (learner)
• Snapshot and log compaction
• Cluster membership management, adding nodes, removing nodes, replacing nodes, etc.
• Mechanism of transfer leader for reboot, load balance scene, etc.
• Symmetric network partition tolerance
• Asymmetric network partition tolerance
• Fault tolerance, minority failure doesn't affect the overall availability of system
• Manual recovery cluster available for majority failure
• Linearizable read, ReadIndex/LeaseRead
• Replication pipeline
• Rich statistics to analyze the performance based on Metrics
• Passed Jepsen consistency verification test
• SOFAJRaft includes an embedded distributed KV storage implementation

Compile requirement: JDK 8+ and Maven 3.2.5+ .
