I was lucky enough to take David Beazley's "Rafting Trip," a five-day training course that guides each student through building their own Raft implementation from scratch:

I'd recommend the course to anyone with development experience working with or near distributed systems. David is a fantastic instructor and facilitator, and the blend of student backgrounds led to some great learning and discussion.

(I have no financial or personal interest here; I just loved the course.)

Out of curiosity, did you register as an individual? And if so, do recall how much the course cost you? His courses seem very interesting.

Yes, I registered as an individual (but was reimbursed through my employer's training budget), and did so a few months in advance as the previous session seemed to fill up pretty quickly. It was USD$1500 for the week. I'm keeping an eye on his course listing too - I'd love to take more.
