Scaling Consensus Algorithms
Heidi explains that managing consensus algorithms like Raft comes with minimal overhead and cost, as they are not typically used in critical applications. However, the performance of these algorithms worsens as more servers are added to the cluster. It is recommended to keep the cluster size small, typically limited to three to seven servers, to maintain optimal performance without sacrificing fault tolerance.In this clip
