[](https://circleci.com/gh/Preetam/libab) [](https://github.com/Preetam/libab/blob/master/LICENSE)
libab is a C library (implemented in C++) to broadcast messages to a cluster of nodes. libab also
provides powerful properties for broadcasted messages:
1. Each successfully broadcasted message is guaranteed to be delivered to a majority of the nodes.
2. Broadcasted messages are fully serialized through an elected leader.
Traffic is sent over TCP with transparent reconnections.
Encryption is also supported and is implemented using [tweetnacl](https://tweetnacl.cr.yp.to/)
with a shared key (provided by the user).
