Computer cluster A computer cluster is a group of computers that work together closely so that in many respects it can be viewed as though it were a single computer. Clusters are commonly (but not always) connected through fast local area networks. Clusters are usually deployed to improve speed and/or reliability over that provided by a single computer, while typically being much more cost-effective than single computers of comparable speed or reliability.
