Cluster Software and Tools

Cluster software and tools are used to create, analyze, optimize, expand and manage high performance applications on clusters. Clustering is the joining of multiple hardware systems into a single-system conceptual model. The purpose of using clustered systems is to provide redundancy in computers that alone would be required to handle variable workloads. Cluster software and tools provide administrators and technicians with a way to manage those multiple systems and make them work as equal parts of the integral whole.
