Introduction to Single System Image Clustering

Brian Elliott Finley writes: "The purpose of this article is to introduce Single System Image (SSI) Clustering. First we will look at what clustering is and the various problems a clustered platform solves. Then we generally define what a SSI cluster is and look at various forms and degrees of SSI. From there we focus on the Open SSI Cluster Project - the goals, the benefits SSI clustering can bring and the application areas for SSI clustering."
