Database Clusters
A database cluster is a group of interconnected computers (servers) that work together to store and manage data. By sharing the workload, they improve performance, reliability, and availability. If one server experiences issues, others continue to operate, ensuring the database remains accessible. Clusters can balance queries across servers, handle large datasets more efficiently, and provide redundancy, so data isn't lost if a server fails. Think of it as a team of experts collaborating seamlessly to keep information safe, consistent, and quickly accessible for users and applications.
