ServerCluster
ServerCluster refers to a group of interconnected servers that work together to behave as a single system. The primary goals are to improve availability, scalability, and performance. A cluster uses multiple nodes to share workloads, tolerate failures, and provide continuous service even when individual servers fail.
Key components include the nodes themselves, a fast interconnect network, and a cluster management layer. Some
Common clustering models include high-availability clusters, which provide automatic failover for critical services; load-balancing clusters, which
Management and operation are supported by cluster orchestration and resource managers that allocate services, monitor health,
Key considerations include data consistency, network latency, and storage topology; security, access control, and encryption; and
