What to read on distributed computing [closed]

Question

I want to create a distributed application but feel that I don't have enough knowledge to do the job. I want to be able to understand how products like apache cassandra, hadoop, etc work and be able to make a choice between them.

Which books and articles should I read to get the knowlegde I need?

P.S. I have quite a good understanding of computer science, algorithms, compiler design, artificial intelligence.
