I am trying to learn more about distributed systems.

Any one have a recommendation for a MOOC or a book that could help?

I am specifically looking to understand frameworks such as Dask or Ray and how to build a similar system from scratch.

Thanks!

I haven't done much in Dask and never heard of Ray, so might not be applicable directly.

But a general book about distributed systems that I highly recommend and one you'll see often referred to on HN is Designing Data-Intensive Applications. Seriously great book and one I often go back to for fundamentals about distributed systems.

I appreciate it, will look up that book

Not sure if this is specific to your ask but I've been enjoying this class. It covers many fundamental concepts.
