Ask HN: Should I choose NJS or Lua to extend Nginx

I know about the ngx_http_keyval_module. I, however, would need to make this distributable with something like Raft consensus protocol. Or something similar to that, and I would like to avoid coding this in C if possible.

Maybe the solution could be something hybrid between already existing plugins and then do only the distribution part of the thing.

Nginx does that natively. The key is the file name and the store is the disk. You can transform URLs using config files, if needed.

There are nginx modules for interacting with Redis and memcached.
