I'm a big fan of DDIA (I have a copy in front of me right now), but the topics covered in DDIA are much more around distributed systems and databases, in short "data architecture", i.e. batch, streaming, derived data, transactions, consistency, etc.

The article above is more about "web architecture".

There is some overlap but DDIA largely doesn't really cover the same topics.

Any other books you'd recommend that come closer to fully covering the topic this post discusses?

Perhaps "Web Scalability for Startup Engineers" by Artur Ejsmont. But I admit I have't read it yet -- I however felt the same as you and started exploring for more resources after coming across this thread.

Designing for Scalability with Erlang/OTP book is good resource. I mix Erlang with Algorithmia pay-per-use algorithms these days to drop in features like sales analysis.

A modern version of Cal Henderson's "Building Scalable Web Sites" would be nice to have. I'm sure a lot of it still applies, but it was written a decade ago: http://shop.oreilly.com/product/9780596102357.do

Not really, but I don't know this space as well as I do the space covered by DDIA. It could well be that no one has written such a book, and perhaps the market is ready for one.

In fact, the Unix and Linux System Administration Handbook offers a pretty good coverage of this topic.
