All,

Can you please direct me to any docs or presentation on architecture
of Etherpad and how different components interact. I took a look at
instruction manual but it didn't explain me clearly.

Thanks
Jay

Have a look at doc.etherpad.org

doc.etherpad.org appears to be down (I get a 502 Bad Gateway error).
Is there any other resource that describes Etherpad's architecture
(specifically, how it achieves consistency)?

Thanks,
Josh

Confirmed that doc.etherpad.org is down!

Here are some very general links on operational transforms, in case
this is the sort of thing you're looking for:

I found this paper on the adOPTed implementation of
operational-transform-based eventual consistency in a collaborative
editor to be quite useful:
