Problem with this book is: what to read after. The book is really good but leaves you with the feeling "there are some many topics I don't know yet... but all the other books out there suck". Any recommendation for someone that has already read DDIA?

Here is their git repository of all online references, by chapter. Seems it doesn't include papers that don't have a clear, public link. If you have the book, though, you can get the names and search for them.

I'm currently reading Distributed Systems by Tanenbaum [1]. It goes into more detail and it's more extensive. It's more outdated but the fundamentals are there.

Each chapter is extensively and exhaustively referenced with the source papers. How about reading them?
