AfloatDB

AfloatDB is a small distributed key-value store built on top of MicroRaft. Treat it as a concrete case study for what an embedded Raft-powered service can look like in practice.

What it shows

  • a state machine implemented on top of MicroRaft
  • Protocol Buffers models for replicated operations
  • gRPC transport and service boundaries around the Raft core

Why it matters

MicroRaft itself is intentionally modular. AfloatDB is useful because it shows one opinionated way to fill in transport, serialization, and storage-adjacent application logic.

Use it as

  • a reference when you need a concrete end-to-end example
  • a source of integration ideas for your own service boundaries
  • a reminder that MicroRaft is a library, not a turnkey database
