Chord Distributed Hash Table
Overview A complete, production-grade implementation of the Chord protocol for distributed hash tables. This project demonstrates deep understanding of distributed systems, peer-to-peer networks, and consistent hashing. Supports dynamic node join/leave operations with automatic ring stabilization. Problem Statement Traditional centralized systems don’t scale. Distributed hash tables (DHTs) enable decentralized data storage and lookup. Chord is a foundational algorithm that guarantees O(log N) lookup time in a P2P network of N nodes—critical for scalable, fault-tolerant systems....
