For example, the Google File System uses a Chubby lock to appoint a GFS master server, and Bigtable uses Chubby in several ways. Now, many other open source cloud projects try to implement a clone idea with Chubby lock service, which is based on the same underlying distributed consensus protocol: Paxos. But it seems all - of the open source implementation are not mature for now.</p> - <p>Considering the core technology, we may notice that Corosync (which - is one component of our SLE HA cluster stack and has been mature) has + of the open source implementation are not mature for now. + Considering the core technology, we may notice that Corosync (which is + one component of our SLE HA cluster stack and has been mature) has implemented some similar functions with Paxos implementation.
