  http://redbook.cs.berkeley.edu/bib4.html http://redbook.cs.berkeley.edu/bib4.html It's the list of papers in the book 'Readings in Database Systems'. Most are classics in the fields. Not easy to read, but it sure is fun.

  Rather than a single resource, I would suggest reading the Wikipedia entries of the following: I(D)MS, Ingres, PickOS, Mumps, GT.M, dbm, Datacom and ADABAS. All of them have great historical value.

  The talk "Database History from Codd to Brewer and Beyond" by Doug Turnbull while not representative of entire database history. Gives pretty good motivations for why things are the way they are.
