4) Clustered System –
• A clustered system consist of several computer system connected through a network.
• Cluster can also be used to providehigh performance computing requirement.
• It is also a multiprocessor system which gether together multiple cpu.
• Clustered system different form the multiprocessor system because they are composed of two or more individual system it is called loosely coupled.
• Cluster computers share storage and are closely linked via local area network.
• Clustering is usually used to provide high ability service – that is service will continue given if one or more systeem in the cluster fail.
There are two types of clustering –
A. Symmetric Clustering
B. Asymmetric Clustering
A.) Symmetric Clustering – In symmetric clustering two or more host are running application and are monitoring each other.
B.) Asymmetric Clustering – In Asymmetric Clustering one machine is in host stand by mode while other is running application.
