Ask HN: Recommendations on books/videos/information about modern Databases
Any recommendations on NoSQL databases, tech papers that'll get me more in-depth knowledge about databases is appreciated.

I have also learned a lot from Aphyr's Jepsen posts about failure modes of mostly NoSQL databases: https://aphyr.com/tags/Jepsen
I enjoy following Daniel J Abadi (https://www.cs.umd.edu/~abadi/), for instance about distributed databases and transactions (https://dbmsmusings.blogspot.com/2015/10/why-mongodb-cassand...).
Thanks for asking the question, I hope more references show up as I would love to learn more as well.
Yeah, It's been a long time since I even looked into databases and I am blown away by the innovation that has happened in this area.
Going back to Elastic Search, they have a pretty good hour long introduction video if you register with your e-mail. Also, they use BKD trees for storing numeric and geo data. I found an article which also links to the original paper on it
