plumtree

Plumtree is an implementation of Plumtree[1], the epidemic broadcast protocol. It is extracted from the implementation in riak_core[2]. Instead of the riak_core ring and riak's ring gossip protocol, it includes a standalone membership gossip, built around riak_dt[3]'s ORSWOT[4].

More information on the plumtree protocol and it's history we encourage you to watch Jordan West's RICON West 2013 talk[5] and Joao Leitao & Jordan West's RICON 2014 talk[6].

A special thanks to Jordan, Joao and the team at Basho for providing much of the code contained in this library.
