Introduction to HPC Cluster

HPC Cluster is a collection of hundreds or thousands of servers that are networked together, each server is known as a node. Each node in a cluster works in parallel with each other, boosting processing speed to deliver high-performance computing. HPC is appropriate for most small and medium-sized businesses since these nodes are tightly, this is the reason why it is called a cluster. All cluster nodes have the same components as a laptop or desktop such as the CPU, cores, memory, and storage space. The difference between a personal computers and a cluster node is in quantity, quality, and power of the components. User login to the cluster head node is done by using the ssh program.
