Second, the work of detecting agent failures is not placed on the servers but is distributed. This makes failure detection much more -scalable than naive heartbeating schemes. It also provides failure detection for the nodes; if the agent is not reachable, than the node may have experienced a failure.

It also provides failure detection for the nodes; if the agent is not reachable, then the node may have experienced a failure. Thirdly, it is used as a messaging layer to notify when important events such as leader election take place. The servers in each datacenter are all part of a single Raft peer set. This means that
