"Linux NetworX, a provider of powerful cluster
supercomputing solutions, announced today the unveiling of
ClusterWorX Lite, an entry-level version of its cluster management
software with limited functionality, designed for cluster systems
with 16 nodes or less. ClusterWorX 2.1, the latest version of the
award-winning cluster management software from Linux NetworX, is
also being released with enhanced features. ClusterWorX and
ClusterWorX Lite are sold as part of the overall cluster solution
provided by Linux NetworX and are not sold separately.
Linux clustering is a method of linking multiple computers, or
compute nodes, together to form a unified and more powerful system.
ClusterWorX and ClusterWorX Lite allow administrators to control
the cluster as a single system, and provide secure remote
monitoring and management capabilities.
Linux NetworX released ClusterWorX Lite to provide organizations
with an alternative cluster management software package with the
basic functionality of ClusterWorX, but without some of the
enhanced features required for larger systems. ClusterWorX Lite can
easily be upgraded to the full ClusterWorX version to gain
additional features like automatic cluster administration, and the
ability to create and control sub-groups of nodes within the
cluster."
