SuRaft

SuRaft implements the Raft protocol where an extended version of the Raft paper is available. The paper introduces Raft and states its motivations in following words:

Raft is a consensus algorithm for managing a replicated log. It produces a result equivalent to (multi-)Paxos, and it is as efficient as Paxos, but its structure is different from Paxos; this makes Raft more understandable than Paxos and also provides a better foundation for building practical systems.
