How can you ensure that your data is stored consistently and reliably across a distributed system?
In this lightboarding video, I cover the basics of how etcd—an open source, distributed key-value data store—can reliably hold and manage critical information. etcd can be relied upon to be a single source of truth for a distributed system or cluster of machines. Most notably, etcd manages the configuration data, state data, and metadata for Kubernetes, the popular container orchestration platform.
