MirBFT Library
MirBFT is a library implementing the Mir byzantine fault tolerant consensus protocol in a network transport, storage, and cryptographic algorithm agnostic way. MirBFT hopes to be a building block of a next generation of distributed systems, providing an implementation of atomic broadcast which can be utilized by any distributed system.
Mir improves on traditional atomic broadcast protocols like PBFT and Raft which always have a single active leader by allowing concurrent leaders and reconciling total order in a deterministic and provably safe way. The multi-leader nature of Mir should lead to exceptional performance especially on wide area networks but should be suitable for LAN deployments as well.
Using Mir
This repository is a new project and under active development and as such, is not suitable for use (yet!). Watch for releases occurring later in 2019.
