Paxos about thesecretlivesofdata HOT 8 OPEN

As the universe of consensus algorithms is larger than Raft and Paxos, it would be very educational to have contrasting visualizations of the different classes and the guarantees they provide and/or lack. The five that come to mind are 2PC, 3PC, (multi-)Paxos, Raft (well done), and Zookeeper.

As this is all related to how well algorithms support the CAP Theorem, a summary page in terms of CAP terms would be very enlightening.

Finally, as these algorithms can be very chatty, it is also very useful to have some sense of the frequency and bandwidth requirements that these algorithms require/occupy. As server and network technology keeps on progressing, this will not be easy. Normalizing against some recognizable baseline, like a particular AWS instance type, and bare metal hardware, would be valuable.

@woolridgegrant This project is active although it may not look like it. I've been trying other ways of packaging content so it's easier to produce. The Raft visualization was extremely time intensive and I'm trying to find alternative ways to do it.
