Distributed Systems without Raft

The project FlowG is a low-code log management software that utilizes the Vector Remap Language and React Flow for scripting and pipeline editing. The team behind FlowG needed a solution for parsing, categorizing, refining, and routing logs to different storages, as well as triggering API calls based on log content. To make FlowG distributed and add high availability, they are exploring SWIM, a Gossip protocol that achieves eventual consistency using Conflict-free Replicated Data Types.
