- To understand Cassandra's architecture you should read [http://www.allthingsdistributed.com/2007/10/amazons_dynamo.html the Dynamo paper] and the related [http://www.allthingsdistributed.com/2008/12/eventually_consistent.html paper on eventual consistency].  Sections 5.3 and 5.4 of [http://labs.google.com/papers/bigtable.html the Bigtable paper] are also relevant to Cassandra's on-disk storage model. Cassandra's failure detector is based on [http://vsedach.googlepages.com/HDY04.pdf the phi accrual failure detector]. There are also some ["Presentations"] on Cassandra that might be helpful.
