Replica_IO
Compose practical distributed replication mechanisms
What is Replica_IO about?
Replica_IO is about making a breakthrough in designing and implementing distributed protocols for the future of decentralized computing! 🚀
The purpose of this project is to advance computing by making highly reliable distributed systems more practical to implement. The goal is to develop a well-supported and widely used state-of-the-art framework for building distributed replication mechanisms. Specifically, the framework should provide a carefully designed collection of primitives, components, tools, and guidelines for developing core mechanisms of fault-tolerant distributed systems. Possible areas of application include blockchain, cloud computing, distributed databases, etc. Following are the key areas of focus:
Simplicity
Making protocol implementations well structured and understandable.
Flexibility
Keeping the framework adaptable, widely applicable, and evolvable.
Reliability
Ensuring that protocol correctness is verifiable and the implementation is resilient.
Efficiency
Allowing for various optimizations and delivering good performance.
Maintainability
Catering for maintenance needs and providing great diagnostic mechanisms.
