I certainly get irritated by videos of people building clusters out of 
Raspberry Pis running SimH with presumably no more of a concept of what 
a cluster actually does from the client's point of view than I have.

My understanding is it's maybe the (Files-11) filesystem and maybe RDB 
or something. But if that's it how is that useful in today's world when 
the clients are web browsers ?

So please explain what clustering actually _does_ and sell me VMS (not 
that I am in a position to buy into it on behalf of anybody).
