GSH Intelligent Integrated Clusters are available in a wide variety of configurations. Whether you are in need of an Intel, AMD, or SUN based cluster we have a solution for you. Our RackMount SpaceSaver Cluster gives you the maximum CPU density with a minimal footprint.

Call GSH Intelligent Integrated Systems today for a Cluster Solution specific to your needs.


There are many types of clusters available today that can be roughly categorized by their intended purpose.

High Performance Clusters
GSH High Performance Cluster clusters are ideal for high performance computing (HPC) workloads that focus on performance and scalability by applying as many CPUs to a problem as possible. Most scientific clusters use some form of batch-processing or work-sharing software. There are usually no resilience features; in case of application or system failure, a checkpoint/resume mechanism might exist to provide the restarting of failed batch loads. Scientific clusters are used for a wide range of disciplines, including biology (genome mapping, protein folding), engineering (turbo-fan design, automobile design), high-energy physics (nuclear-weapons simulation), astrophysics (galaxy simulation), and meteorology (climate simulation, earth/ocean modeling).

Clustering for High Availability
GSH High availability (HA) clusters add availability features on top of operating system infrastructures. Availability is achieved by using scripts that monitor application service health on individual cluster nodes.

In case of service failure (due to the failing of disks, networks, or the application service itself), the application will be restarted on another node. Individual cluster nodes are primarily administered independently of each other.
