Is there any special reason that this project is based on rafter instead of riak_ensemble?

[RomanShestakov]

hello, thanks for making this project available. I think it is the awesome idea, I really like the API to detect the primary replica for a set of keys. The only question / concern that I have is the use of rafter. My understanding is that any development of rafter is discontinued and it is not a prod ready. Is there any chance to port this to riak_ensemble instead?

Regards, Roman

Hi Roman,

Support for riak_ensemble is also being added. I submitted a patch for ensemble recently that means riak_governor is effectively provider agnostic now. Rafter is the default but riak_ensemble can be configured as a replacement. I should note that some further work is required for the riak_ensemble version and it is being done as I type...

I hope this helps!

Cheers,

Darach.

Hi Roman,
could you elaborate more about rafter not being ready for prod?
Please notice that riak_governor is using only a subset of rafter or riak_ensemble, which is leader election.
As far as I tested different scenarios with rafter it behaved really really well.
Cheers,
