 Paraphrasing @fogus from their [blog](http:https://blog.fogus.me/2011/09/08/10-technical-papers-every-programmer-should-read-at-least-twice/), it is very rare for a paper describing an active production system to influence the state of active research in any industry; this is one of those seminal distributed systems paper that solves the problem of a highly available and fault tolerant database in an elegant way, later paving the way for systems like Cassandra, and many other AP systems using a consistent hashing.
