Dissecting the Performance of Strongly-Consistent Replication Protocols
Summary: Systematically dissects strongly-consistent replication protocols—single-leader, multi-leader, hierarchical multi-leader, and leaderless—across LAN/WAN workloads. Combines queuing-theory modeling, simulations, and Paxi-driven evaluation to yield practical throughput/latency formulas for deployment-specific protocol choices.
