About Clustering Software
A cluster is a set of computers connected to form a single server resource for many web applications. Clustering is a method of transforming multiple computer servers
into one group. The software is installed in each server that is connected to the network. The architecture of clustering software improves the performance and
scalability of servers, and reduces operating costs. Clustering software also allows server developers, managers, or IT professionals to develop new technologies and
integrate them with the legacy systems.
Clustering is implemented at various levels of operating systems, which include hardware, OS, middleware, and systems management and its applications. The reliability
of a cluster increases with the increase in the number of layers. The benefits of clustering software are:
• Optimal use of resources and their consolidation
• Improved scalability
• Centralized system management
• High processing capacity
• Geographical server presence
• Disaster recovery; clustering with built-in recovery features is used in most of the applications.
A typical clustering setup includes:
• A disk shared between nodes
• A private heartbeat network between nodes
Technavio's analysts forecast the global clustering software market to grow at a CAGR of 4.23% over the period 2014-2019.
