New course using raft at UCSD

[gmporter]

Hi all,

I've adopted what I would say is a simplified version of Raft at UCSD. I'm teaching a 10-week undergrad networked software course, and include a strong leader, 2-phase commit, and a replicated log. I don't include leader election, but do point those students wishing to go deeper to the Raft paper. Thought it might be of interest to you.
