Enterprise Linux Today: Linux NetworX Unveils ClusterWorX Lite and Releases ClusterWorX 2.1

"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."
