  1. how many raft nodes can i add? 50000? just curious.
  2. does it mean all 50000 will store duplicated data or is there a way to do Replication Factor = 5 or 3 so that only 3 / 5 copies are stored?

  1. you can have unlimited number of nodes. it is only limited by the resources you have.
  2. dragonboat uses majority quorum. use 5 replicas for your shard and you get replication factor of 5 and quorum of 3.
