Both authors have taught the course of “Distributed Systems” for many years in the respective schools. During the teaching, we feel strongly that “Distributed systems” have evolved from traditional “LAN” based distributed systems towards “Internet based” systems. Although there exist many excellent textbooks on this topic, because of the fast development of distributed systems and network programming/protocols, we have difficulty in finding an appropriate textbook for the course of “distributed systems” with orientation to the requirement of the undergraduate level study for today’s distributed technology. Specifically, from - to-date concepts, algorithms, and models to implementations for both distributed system designs and application programming. Thus the philosophy behind this book is to integrate the concepts, algorithm designs and implementations of distributed systems based on network programming. After using several materials of other textbooks and research books, we found that many texts treat the distributed systems with separation of concepts, algorithm design and network programming and it is very difficult for students to map the concepts of distributed systems to the algorithm design, prototyping and implementations. This book intends to enable readers, especially postgraduates and senior undergraduate level, to study up-to-date concepts, algorithms and network programming skills for building modern distributed systems. It enables students not only to master the concepts of distributed network system but also to readily use the material introduced into implementation practices.

Learning to build distributed systems is hard, especially if they are large scale. It's not that there is a lack of information out there. You can find academic papers, engineering blogs, and even books on the subject. The problem is that the available information is spread out all over the place, and if you were to put it on a spectrum from theory to practice, you would find a lot of material at the two ends but not much in the middle. That is why I decided to write a book that brings together the core theoretical and practical concepts of distributed systems so that you don't have to spend hours connecting the dots. This book will guide you through the fundamentals of large-scale distributed systems, with just enough details and external references to dive deeper. This is the guide I wished existed when I first started out, based on my experience building large distributed systems that scale to millions of requests per second and billions of devices. If you are a developer working on the backend of web or mobile applications (or would like to be!), this book is for you. When building distributed applications, you need to be familiar with the network stack, data consistency models, scalability and reliability patterns, observability best practices, and much more. Although you can build applications without knowing much of that, you will end up spending hours debugging and re-architecting them, learning hard lessons that you could have acquired in a much faster and less painful way. However, if you have several years of experience designing and building highly available and fault-tolerant applications that scale to millions of users, this book might not be for you. As an expert, you are likely looking for depth rather than breadth, and this book focuses more on the latter since it would be impossible to cover the field otherwise. The second edition is a complete rewrite of the previous edition. Every page of the first edition has been reviewed and where appropriate reworked, with new topics covered for the first time.

Applications for Distributed Systems and Network Management Kornel Terplan and Jill Huntington-Lee The comprehensive, single source guide for tackling today's most critical network and systems management challenges Includes detailed product assessments from such market leaders as IBM, Hewlett-Packard, Sun Microsystems, and more. Now network administrators and MIS pros can downsize their firm's enterprise computing environment and work smarter with fewer staffing resources. This highly usable guide delivers clear, objective guidance for defining and quantifying your distributed management requirements. And it supplies the tactical guidance you need to apply commercially available network management products to ease the transition to rightsized networks, client/server structures, and open distributed systems. Need help reengineering key management processes for a distributed computing environment? Want to know what management integration alternatives are currently available? How to embed products from IBM and Hewlett-Packard into customized solutions? Are expert systems worth the cost? Applications for Distributed Systems and Network Management highlights today's three best technological management models for downsized, distributed networks. Then, page after page, it shows what applications are available now and which NMP-, DOS/Windows-, or UNIX-based management platforms they support, and shares application integration case studies that help you anticipate and blast through the barriers for achieving integrated management of client/server structures. Discover: * How to select the right management platform -- with data on various alarm facilities, presentation capabilities, and application programming interfaces and process-specific applications for trouble-ticketing, cable management, traffic monitoring, and data analysis. * Solutions to such hot management problems as remote configuration of routers, software distribution, fault isolation, centralization, automation, outsourcing, use of expert systems, and intelligent processing of collected data. * Performance reviews of IBM's NetView and AIX NetView 6000, Hewlett-Packard's HP OpenView, Sun's SunNet Manager, plus third party integration products from Peregrine Systems, SynOptics, Cisco, Remedy Action Request Systems, Ki Research, and more. * A look ahead at future distributed management protocols, switching technologies, smart agents, and increasing uses of object-oriented technology.

This is the fourth edition of "Distributed Systems." We have stayed close to the setup of the third edition, including examples of (part of) existing distributed systems close to where general principles are discussed. For example, we have included material on blockchain systems, and discuss their various components throughout the book. We have, again, used special boxed sections for material that can be skipped at first reading. The text has been thoroughly reviewed, revised, and updated. In particular, all the Python code has been updated to Python3, while at the same time the channel package has been almost completely revised and simplified. Additional material, including coding examples, figures, and slides, are available at www.distributed-systems.net.
