A server clustering is the process of grouping servers to work simultaneously so that they can deliver high available services to customers. Moreover, it is done with the objective of achieving greater redundancy, resiliency, reliability and scalability requirements. Besides, the clustered servers may host different applications and systems that may demand highly performing infrastructures.
server clustering is ideal solution to achieve fault-tolerant databases, applications and related systems. We cluster servers to establish redundancy and avoid single point of failure (SPOF) when errors occur.
There three types of server clustering namely:
- Single Quorum Cluster
- Majority Node Set Cluster
- Single Node Cluster
