Good reading on general database theory?

[s***@gmail.com]

Bump!

I'm looking for the same (except now its 2014, not 1999).
What's good reading material today for database design in depth? I'd like something that covers topics such as MVCC, consistent hashing algorithms, CAP theorem, locking schemes, etc..., (as opposed to table design patterns, etc...)

Hi all,
Can anyone point me to some web sites where I could find some decent
reading on general database theory?.

I recommend you the book
Database
Models, Languages, Design
by James L. Johnson
Oxford University Press 1997 (http://www.oup-usa.org)
Relational, OO, deductive, databases (and others) are presented
in detail, applied to the same case of fishes, tanks and species.

Nancy Lynch seems to be THE person, going off: http://brooker.co.za/blog/2014/05/10/lynch-pub.html

E.g.: http://www.amazon.com/dp/1558603484 (textbook) then the CAP paper &etc.
