Four documents, the same five questions.
No throughput league table and no yield. The cells are what this library is willing to say about the text.
| Question | Paxos Made Simple |
|---|---|
| What the text proposes | The same two-phase majority protocol, written as pseudocode: prepare, accept, and learn. |
| Who may write | Leslie Lamport |
| What is settled | One leader can run many instances, one per log slot. |
| Load-bearing assumption | The note is not a failure detector. |
| What this library says afterwards | A reading of the public document. Not a copy of it, and not a claim about a later network that reused the name. |
| Rights | Official external source only |
