Raft is a large improvement over Paxos for practical implementations. But it's still tricky to get right. As far as I know, the only widely used, battle tested Raft implementation is github.com/hashicorp/raft. Which is why so many distributed systems are being built on golang over the last few years. I don't know if there is any Java raft implementation which has reached that level of maturity yet - but it seems like Confluence is trying with kraft.
