locksrv (by @samthor)

“Raft-as-a-service”

locksrv is a free service for global locking. If you'd like to ensure only one person holds a named lock, connect to the URL above. Or try it in your browser ✨

This implements a Raft-like algorithm with nodes across the Earth. It is 'slow' to initially acquire a lock—have you heard of c?—but is faster for already active locks.

🚨 locksrv is a free service and is subject to the usual rate-limiting and abuse checks!

Please contact locksrv@samthor.au if you'd like to discuss a commercial verison. Features include:

• SLA
• Message-passing to the leader
• Replicated state machine
• Private namespace
• Access without CORS restrictions
