Must Read/ Favorite Papers in Database and related fields
Please recommend what you consider to be the most important or just favorite papers in Database Management, Information Systems, Data Mining etc.

Here are couple that I think are important milestones:

1. What Goes Around Comes Around - Michael Stonebraker, Joseph M. Hellerstein

2. [Dynamo: Amazon’s Highly Available Key-value Store  - Giuseppe DeCandia, Deniz Hastorun, Madan et al](http://www.allthingsdistributed.com/files/amazon-dynamo-sosp2007.pdf) 

3. [Bigtable: A Distributed Storage System for Structured Data - Fay Chang, Jeffrey Dean et al.](http://labs.google.com/papers/bigtable.html)

4. [MapReduce: Simplified Data Processing on Large Clusters - Jeffrey Dean and Sanjay Ghemawat](http://labs.google.com/papers/mapreduce.html)

5. Brewer's conjecture and the feasibility of consistent, available, partition-tolerant web services

6. [Parallel database systems: the future of high performance database systems - Jim Gray](http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~dewitt/includes/paralleldb/cacm.pdf)

7. A Formal Model of Crash Recovery in a Distributed System - Skeen, D.  Stonebraker, M
