Relevant, well written, a great overview of a very broad field

It's just essential material and extremely well written, you can see why the author is a big name in computer science. If how backend systems (including cloud, grid, & cluster computers) are designed has always mystified you; if you don't exactly know the meaning of the term 'middleware'; if you want to understand the many ways that nodes in a distributed system are coordinated; if you want to familiarize with alot of very common terms you hear as a developer but which may not have been well-defined before... well, then you'll enjoy this book. It's a very broad topic, yet I still think it's covered in sufficient depth, it's very well written - concise, meaningful and accessible.Note that it is a general overview of the field - that's the point of the book, it's a very broad title. It's not a shallow treatment, but if you're (like other reviewers) expecting a deep dive into one particular aspect of distributed systems, well... think a little more clearly before you buy.5 stars - great job!

Ottimo libro

Tanenbaum è una garanzia. Argomenti espressi con chiarezza unica, ben strutturato e con ottimo dettaglio sugli argomenti.

El contenido es maginifico, pero la presentacion es pesima

El contenido del libro maginifico (un clasico dentro de la literatura sobre sistemas distribuidos), pero la presentación es pesima, con unas tapas blandas de muy mala calidad que ya llegaron deformadas y que se comban cada vez mas. Tendria que haber buscado una edicion con tapas duras...

A classic renewed

Decades ago I came across versions of this by Tanenbaum. The ecology of computing is changed hugely. I am hoping to read this and the 2002 incarnation of this book. It is computing history that charms me so I lover long lived classics. Donald Knuth's book did not get redone other wise I would buy it.

A good overview of distributed systems that goes to enough depth to spark interest. Might be too much for beginners, but a good intermediate level reference.
