Distributed systems readings

Some more great resources:<p>This is a list of many of the most influential white papers: <a href="http://christophermeiklejohn.com/distributed/systems/2013/07/12/readings-in-distributed-systems.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;christophermeiklejohn.com&#x2F;distributed&#x2F;systems&#x2F;2013&#x2F;07...</a> This is an associated podcast: <a href="http://thinkdistributed.io/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;thinkdistributed.io&#x2F;</a> This is mixu&#x27;s book on distributed systems: <a href="http://book.mixu.net/distsys/single-page.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;book.mixu.net&#x2F;distsys&#x2F;single-page.html</a> This is the MIT reading list: <a href="http://courses.csail.mit.edu/6.852/05/papers/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;courses.csail.mit.edu&#x2F;6.852&#x2F;05&#x2F;papers&#x2F;</a>

I have a small collection of related university courses that might be of interest - <a href="https://github.com/prakhar1989/awesome-courses/blob/master/README.md#systems" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;prakhar1989&#x2F;awesome-courses&#x2F;blob&#x2F;master&#x2F;R...</a>

This might be very useful: <a href="http://henryr.github.io/distributed-systems-readings/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;henryr.github.io&#x2F;distributed-systems-readings&#x2F;</a>

As a supplement to these I would also recommend checking out the lecture notes for 15-440, the intro distributed systems class. I took it spring of 2013 and thought it gave me a really good grounding in the material.<p><a href="http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/course/15-440-f14/index/lecture_index.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.andrew.cmu.edu&#x2F;course&#x2F;15-440-f14&#x2F;index&#x2F;lecture_in...</a>

For a more ambitious reading list, refer to CS6410 from Cornell [0]. The topics of the readings range from operating systems to distributed systems and networking.<p>[0] <a href="http://www.cs.cornell.edu/courses/cs6410/2014fa/sched.htm" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cs.cornell.edu&#x2F;courses&#x2F;cs6410&#x2F;2014fa&#x2F;sched.htm</a>

Another good list of papers from my alma mater<p><a href="http://www.cs.rice.edu/~alc/comp520/schedule.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cs.rice.edu&#x2F;~alc&#x2F;comp520&#x2F;schedule.html</a><p>This class on networking has a great list of papers as well..great for understanding the systems which distributed systems depend on as well:<p><a href="https://www.clear.rice.edu/comp529/www/list.html" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.clear.rice.edu&#x2F;comp529&#x2F;www&#x2F;list.html</a>

The main webpage (and the links from that) will give more context on how the readings were chosen - <a href="https://www.andrew.cmu.edu/course/15-749/" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.andrew.cmu.edu&#x2F;course&#x2F;15-749&#x2F;</a>.<p>On a separate note, it is always great to see Satya&#x27;s courses in the news.

Thanks for sharing. I summarize my stuff here: <a href="http://www.freedomlayer.org/articles_index.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.freedomlayer.org&#x2F;articles_index.html</a> I&#x27;m not done yet, but it might be of interest.

I came up with a similar list, in reverse chronological order: <a href="https://timelinee.com/t/SlqJWH/" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;timelinee.com&#x2F;t&#x2F;SlqJWH&#x2F;</a>

Is there a more user friendly and hand holding way to learn about distributed systems?<p>Such as a good video lecture series?

Hey! We&#x27;re working on some cool distributed systems stuff, data in particular - and dedicated to javascripters! If you&#x27;re interested, check out <a href="http://github.com/amark/gun" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;amark&#x2F;gun</a> or send me a message!
