    Erlang/OTP doesn't handle leader election, and by itself is bad at handling netsplits.

    There is https://github.com/rabbitmq/ra which is a Raft implementation in Erlang that is Jepsen-tested. You could use it to build "etcd in Erlang", or https://github.com/rabbitmq/khepri which is built on top of Ra.

    Disk works too, but if you're multi-node this means you now have a distributed database embedded in your system, which may or may not be your goal :)

    RabbitMQ does this, they developed a library for "persistent, fault-tolerant and replicated state machines" based on Raft: https://github.com/rabbitmq/ra.
