Technical papers referred to in Open Source Distributed systems implementations

4 pointsessessv3 comments

Hi,

I'm thinking of creating a reading list of technical papers that were referred while implementing distributed systems software. For example, ZooKeeper uses distributed coordination and is inspired from paxos. Is there a list like this already? How do various systems map to published technical papers?

Look for a "Papers We Love" meetup in your city and ask questions in that group. the Github repo is also very useful. Details are here: http://paperswelove.org/

Zookeeper was actually inspired by Google's Chubby Lock Service paper, which is a great paper to check out.
