Distributed Consistency Algorithms: CAP, BASE, 2PC, 3PC, Paxos, Raft, ZAB, and NWR Model

This article explains the fundamentals of distributed consistency, covering the CAP theorem, BASE model, two‑phase and three‑phase commit protocols, Paxos and Raft consensus algorithms, Zookeeper’s ZAB protocol, and Amazon Dynamo’s NWR model with vector clocks for conflict resolution.

Mastering Distributed Consistency: Paxos, NWR Model, and CAP Trade‑offs

This article explains how distributed systems balance consistency, availability, and performance by covering consensus algorithms like Paxos, replication models such as Master‑Slave and Master‑Master, and Amazon Dynamo’s N‑R‑W and Vector Clock approaches, while illustrating the CAP theorem trade‑offs.
