TLDR
D Dynamo is presented, a highly available key-value storage system that some of Amazon's core services use to provide an "always-on" experience and makes extensive use of object versioning and application-assisted conflict resolution in a manner that provides a novel interface for developers to use.Abstract:
Reliability at massive scale is one of the biggest challenges we face at Amazon.com, one of the largest e-commerce operations in the world; even the slightest outage has significant financial consequences and impacts customer trust. The Amazon.com platform, which provides services for many web sites worldwide, is implemented on top of an infrastructure of tens of thousands of servers and network components located in many datacenters around the world. At this scale, small and large components fail continuously and the way persistent state is managed in the face of these failures drives the reliability and scalability of the software systems.This paper presents the design and implementation of Dynamo, a highly available key-value storage system that some of Amazon's core services use to provide an "always-on" experience. To achieve this level of availability, Dynamo sacrifices consistency under certain failure scenarios. It makes extensive use of object versioning and application-assisted conflict resolution in a manner that provides a novel interface for developers to use.read more

A generalization of multiple choice balls-into-bins
TL;DR: The allocation scheme can be employed as optimal file replication and data partition policies in distributed file systems and databases and may depend on the level of load balance, file availability, fault tolerance, and popularity or size of a file.

Implementing distributed shared memory for dynamic networks
TL;DR: Atomically consistent memory services provide resiliency in dynamic settings with real-time requirements for disaster recovery in distributed systems.
Computational rest: a new model for decentralized, internet-scale applications
TL;DR: It is shown that this new style pinpoints the root cause of the apparent dissonance between style and implementation in critical portions of the web's infrastructure, and provides the necessary design guidance to create new web applications which have not been seen before.

Time, clocks, and the ordering of events in a distributed system
TL;DR: In this paper, the concept of one event happening before another in a distributed system is examined, and a distributed algorithm is given for synchronizing a system of logical clocks which can be used to totally order the events.
