PAXOS
First consensus algorithm proposed by L.Lamport in 1989
Objective: choosing a single value under crash or network fault
System process
Making a proposal
Accepting a value
Handling failures
so let us go to the Paxos so PAXOS as an interesting history it was the first consensus algorithm that was proposed by Leslie Lamport in 1989 and the objective of paxos was to choose a single value under a crash or network fault so this paxos although it was proposed by Lampard in 1989 but it took around 13 years to get the paper published and there was a lot of discussion among the community about the correctness of this particular algorithm read more
