An industrial-grade C++ implementation ofRAFT consensus algorithm andreplicated state machine based onbrpc. braft is designed and implemented for scenarios demanding for high workload and low overhead of latency, with the consideration for easy-to-understand concepts so that engineers inside Baidu can build their own distributed systems individually and correctly.

It's widely used inside Baidu to build highly-available systems, such as:

• Storage systems: Key-Value, Block, Object, File ...
• SQL storages: HA MySQL cluster, distributed transactions, NewSQL systems ...
• Meta services: Various master modules, Lock services ...

• Buildbrpc which is the main dependency of braft.

• Compile braft with cmake

  $ mkdir bld&&cd bld&& cmake ..&& make

• Play braft withexamples.

• Installing from vcpkg

  You can download and installbraft using thevcpkg dependency manager:

  git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg.gitcd vcpkg./bootstrap-vcpkg.sh./vcpkg integrate install./vcpkg install braft

  Thebraft port in vcpkg is kept up to date by Microsoft team members and community contributors. If the version is out of date, pleasecreate an issue or pull request on the vcpkg repository.
