Cluster Computing is a computing approach in which multiple interconnected computers, known as nodes, work together as a coordinated system to perform tasks. The nodes can divide processing workloads, share resources, or provide redundancy, making the combined system capable of handling jobs that may be too demanding or critical for a single machine.
It is commonly used for high-performance computing, scientific simulations, large-scale data processing, and applications requiring high availability. Workload management software distributes tasks across nodes and can detect failures or rebalance processing, allowing the cluster to continue operating efficiently as computing demands change.
