[SOLVED] 2020 Clustering question
by however from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5APGK)
hi everyone,
I am trying to learn how to connect servers together (minimum of 2, but it could be more in the near future) all with XEON CPUs, as I am planning to build a supercomputer with 12-16CPUs, or more.
I am trying to read and, hopefully, learn on clustering several nodes, HA, etc., however the most recent thread I found on this topic in the forum is dated back to 2012 and by googling it's like 'going down the rabbit hole'.
So, I thought it might be easier to ask for directions to experts.
I would like to learn:
1) what is the best clustering package to run on slackware_current?
2) info-related links or tutorials on:
a) how to connect each individual node,
b) what to install in each individual node,
c) specific requirements for each node (libraries, dependencies, etc.)
3) any other related details that could get me going.
Any inputs is appreciated.
