Abstract
The author considers how the idea of clustering has become new again. Clusters of NT computers and mass storage devices, connected locally and remotely into a single, highly scalable system, will quickly become the dominant model of enterprise computing. Over 80% of the multiserver systems today are connected for high availability. The demands of accessibility and reliability in today´s Internet, intranet, and enterprise server environments increasingly require failover capability, if one server goes down, the other takes over automatically
