About the book

Both in the libraries and on the internet plenty of resources are available regarding the Distributed Systems topic. All of them are just a better explanation of the same exact source of truth, i.e. academic papers published by the brightest minds in the world. This book is just an ordered collection of all those publications. The primary order of the chapters is based on the citations dependency in the publications, secondary order is based on the year of publication and finally the last criteria is based on the topic dependency. There are three editions of the book: Essential, Virtuoso and Maestro. The Essential Edition contains the historical and most important publications that are at the core of our current distributed systems. The Virtuoso Edition contains the essential edition papers and some recent distributed systems that are built with the technology provided in the essential papers. Finally, the Maestro Edition is a massive collection of the most relevant papers regarding the topic in the academic world.
