Cluster Computing: A Review of Cluster Characteristics across Several Leading Vendors

Overview The cluster systems covered differ in style and architecture from the basic systems which comprise the nodes of the cluster as well as the manner in which the nodes participate in the cluster system as a whole. Cluster operation is fundamental to VMS, unlike most systems which consist of a UNIX operating system and add-on cluster software. This paper does not include a dissertation on the benefits of clusters, rather it assumes the reader is familiar with such benefits which fall into the global categories of availability and scalability. Currently, there are no accepted standards for clustered computing, however, standard connections and protocols are used by some, but not all of the systems reviewed.
