* [Chord: A Scalable Peer-to-peer Lookup Service for Internet Applications](http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~rxin/db-papers/Chord-DHT.pdf) (2001) and [Dynamo: Amazon’s Highly Available Key-value Store](http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~rxin/db-papers/Dynamo.pdf) (2007): Chord was born in the days when distributed hash tables was a hot research. It does one thing, and does it really well: how to look up the location of a key in a completely distributed setting (peer-to-peer) using consistent hashing. The Dynamo paper explains how to build a distributed key-value store using Chord. Note some design decisions change from Chord to Dynamo, e.g. finger table O(logN) vs O(N), because in Dynamo's case, Amazon has more control over nodes in a data center, while Chord assumes peer-to-peer nodes in wide area networks.


* [Windows Azure Storage: A Highly Available Cloud Storage Service with Strong Consistency](http://sigops.org/sosp/sosp11/current/2011-Cascais/printable/11-calder.pdf) (2011) Windows Azure Storage (WAS) is a scalable cloud storage system that has been in production since November 2008. It is used inside Microsoft for applications such as social networking search, serving video, music and game content, managing medical records, and more. The paper describes Windows Azure Storage architecture.
